Message #20 received at 43296 <at> debbugs.gnu.org (full text, mbox):

From: Leo Prikler <leo.prikler <at> student.tugraz.at>
To: 43296 <at> debbugs.gnu.org
Subject: [PATCH] gnu: Fix gnome-builder build.
Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2020 20:26:10 +0200

As reported in #43296, gnome-builder tries to be linked against the static
version of libselinux (propagated through glib/gio), failing to do so, as it
also wants to be a PIE.  To keep the PIE, link it against the dynamic library.
* gnu/packages/gnome.scm (gnome-builder)[#:phases]: Add 'fix-ninja.
