Submitted:	14 Oct 2016 7:45	Modified:	15 Apr 2017 1:33
Reporter:	Kemin Zhou	Email Updates:
Status:	Closed	Impact on me:	None

Description:

When using RedHat 7, gcc 4.8.3 compiler, the mysql library can be build without any problem.
After upgrading to gcc 5.3.0 I encountered an error during linking.  Using parallel make, I can see that almost all of the package can built and linked.  The only problem is around 85% 
==================

How to repeat:
Try to use GCC 5.3.0 installed at /user/local/
and default compiler gcc 4.8.3 install at /usr

It looks like the linker is confused which could be a configuration issue.

Hello Kemin Zhou,

Thank you for the report.
I'm not seeing the reported issue with gcc 5.3.0 when compiling 5.7.17.
Could you please confirm if this is fixed, and if you are still seeing the issue then report us back with exact cmake command to investigate further at our end.

Thanks,
Umesh

After seeing this bug, I used other means to install MySql, so that this bug is no longer an issue.
This bug may not be easy to reproduce on a different computer, it could be the problem of my own computer.

I will mark it as fixed.
