GNU ld now enables -Wl,-as-needed by default. This cause issue on our side in the final package. ITK: we link with ITK_LIBRARIES which includes, itknetlib and was not linked with any of OTB module. This bug was seen in windows package testing. https://dash.orfeo-toolbox.org/testDetails.php?test=59861738&build=287155 Shark: This is another example where wl,-as-needed is causing trouble shark link with a couple of boost libraries but no of them are linked into libshark.so due to default -Wl,-as-needed. With this option, the linker will drop an lib or .so on command line if none of it's symbols are used by the project. In both cases (ITK and Shark), there are upstream issues. Shark should not add boost_system to link flags if it is not used in sharklib. Maybe this boost component is used in examples. I don't know much. It is really an upstream issue. Same case with ITK, if itknetlib is built by default, and is not necessary for the activated itk modules, it should skip that. To get back old behaviour, we have to use -Wl,no-as-needed. The other option; Wl-no-undefined is to trigger a link error if an undefined reference is found. The exact behaviour of as-needed and no-undefined can be found on GNU LD man pages (man ld).
