Hi guixes,

This one and the next patch fix '--version' of guix-daemon and
guix-register. Currently, they are not working, which is the reason why
help2man gives error when building from source.

This patch and the other one fix the problem reported in
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2016-08/msg00529.html>,
do they look good?

Thanks,

How are they not working exactly?  :-)

It definitely works for me:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ ./guix-daemon --version
guix-daemon (GNU Guix) 0.11.0
$ ./guix-register --version
guix-register (GNU Guix) 0.11.0
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I get this output instead:

$ LC_ALL=C ./guix-daemon --version
./guix-daemon: unrecognized option '--version'
Try `guix-daemon --help' or `guix-daemon --usage' for more information.

This is werid, but I think it is because I build guix with lto.

Here is how I build guix:

$ ./bootstrap && ./configure CFLAGS='-O2 -flto' CXXFLAGS='-O2 -flto' LDFLAGS='-O2 -flto' && make -j`nproc` AR=gcc-ar NM=gcc-nm RANLIB=gcc-ranlib

So, perhaps this is a gcc bug! (not guix's one, we can forget about the
patch)

Could you reproduce it?

Alex

What about the attached program?  It works for me with GCC 6.2.0, both
with and without LTO.

I think you have isolated the problem! This test case does not work for
me.


I get the following output after building with
(g++ -O2 -flto version.cxx):
==============================================================================
alexvong1995@debian:~/c++$ ./a.out --version
./a.out: unrecognized option '--version'

  -?, --help                 Give this help list
      --usage                Give a short usage message

Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional
for any corresponding short options.

My gcc version is also 6.2.0:

Do you have any idea?

What if you compile with ‘gcc’ (and rename to foo.c) instead of ‘g++’?

It might be a symbol visibility problem, or name mangling issue.

Hmm, I try to build with 'gcc -O2 -flto version.c' and './a.out
--version' still fails with 'unrecognized option'. I check the symbols
using 'nm' and they are not mangled. How should I check for the sign of
a symbol visibility problems? 

Thanks,
Alex

‘nm’ shows a capital T for exported symbols, and a lowercase t for
hidden/private symbols.

Maybe you should report a bug against your distro’s package and see what
they think?
