  • Bug#1105675: syslinux: FTBFS with make --shuffle=reverse: elf_module.c:

    From Lucas Nussbaum@21:1/5 to All on Tue May 13 21:30:19 2025

    Source: syslinux
    Version: 3:6.04~git20190206.bf6db5b4+dfsg1-3.1
    Severity: minor

    Hi,

    GNU Make now has a --shuffle option that simulates non-deterministic ordering of target prerequisites. See https://trofi.github.io/posts/238-new-make-shuffle-mode.html and also previous work in Debian by Santiago Vila: https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/make-shuffle/

    This package fails to build with make --shuffle=reverse.
    This is likely to be caused by a missing dependency in
    debian/rules or an upstream Makefile.
