Thomas, All,

Now I won the beer, the serious reply...

On 2016-08-20 00:07 +0200, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:

I was not able to reproduce after ~10 successive builds, all repeated on
three different systems: my laptop (Ubuntu 16.04), my server (Ubuntu
14.04) or my autobuilder instance (Ubuntu 12.04 IIRC).

There is another type of issues for kmsxx:

    collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

And I was not able to reproduce it either... :-/

Because none is using libbsd-overlay.pc, just libbsd.pc.

The underlying issue, that pkconf does not munge -isystem, is being
investigated by the pkconf guys:
