<PRE>Le Jeudi 8 Septembre 2011 13:29:39 Thierry Vignaud a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> Hi
</I>&gt;<i> In order to speed up KDE build which is said to link quite slowly,
</I>&gt;<i> wouldn't it be time to try to build KDE with gold as linker?
</I>I can try locally at least (if i can use less than 6 hours to build KDE 
on BS it would be nice :p ) , however do we have a specific macro to 
specify using ld.gold instead of ld  (i never played with linker before) 
?

Also from the mandriva thread  [1]. maybe we can considere switching to 
gold by default for all packages (with somes exceptions for kernel &amp; 
others packages).
Another &#171; solution &#187; could be using alternatives for binutils so a 
package can simply use gold linker by simply requering a binutils-gold 
package like it's done in debian ?


Regards,
