package/qt5/qt5webengine: don't link with libstdc++.a on the host
While cross-compiling, qt5webengine is building a host tool, 'gn', and by default wants to link it statically with libstdc++, when the tool is otherwise dynamically linked with other libraries: $ ldd 3rdparty/gn/out/Release/gn linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffc1c999000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f48a3c06000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f48a3be4000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f48a3a1b000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f48a3c53000) Not all ditributions have the static libraries installed by default; for example, on Fedora, libstdc++-static is not installed on a fresh system, leading to build issues: [185/185] LINK gn FAILED: gn /usr/bin/g++ -O3 -fdata-sections -ffunction-sections -Wl,--gc-sections -Wl,-strip-all -Wl,--as-needed -static-libstdc++ -pthread -o gn -Wl,--start-group tools/gn/gn_main.o base.a gn_lib.a -Wl,--end-group -ldl /usr/bin/ld : unable to find -lstdc++ [...] Project ERROR: GN build error! The root cause is the addition in [0] of a command line option to the build of gn, that requests static linking with libstdc++ by default. Explicitly pass that option now, to avoid static linking with libstdc++ and get a fully dynamicallty linked executable: $ ldd 3rdparty/gn/out/Release/gn linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffd3f160000) libstdc++.so.6 => /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f68138e7000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f68138c5000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f68136fc000) libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f68135b6000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f6813b13000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f681359c000) [0] https://github.com/qt/qtwebengine-chromium/commit/cfab9198a9917f42cf08b1caf84ab9b71aac1911#diff-905c8f054808213577c0a92d1b704615 Signed-off-by:Romain Naour <romain.naour@gmail.com> Cc: Gaël Portay <gael.portay@collabora.com> [yann.morin.1998@free.fr: - rewrite the commit log with extra details and explanations ] Signed-off-by:
