Summary0000021: Plugins do not load in Ubuntu Oneiric
DescriptionAfter upgrading form Ubuntu natty to Ubuntu oneiric and recompiling, plugins are not loaded at all.

For example:

$ ldd libclam_sndfile_plugin.so
        linux-gate.so.1 => (0x006e9000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00110000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00596000)

So, no trace of libclam_sndfile.so and its dependencies.

TagsNo tags attached.

 According to https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-November/031991.html, [^] now gcc pass the --as-needed option to the linker by default. Because the plugin is just an empty library pulling the actual library with no symbol reference, that option just breaks the whole plugin loading.

There is the --no-as-needed option to fix that and it acts like a switch in the command line so the option sequence '-la --no-as-needed -lb --as-needed -lc' will force the link of libb, while liba and libc is pulled just if we reference symbols. Due to this ordering dependency, and because different platforms we should be carefull when introducing it.

 Quick workaround: overwrite the *_plugin.so files with links to the actual libraries.
