New binutils 2.22 causing havoc on many AUR packages

https://bbs.archlinux.org – Many posts around here showing that this is a common problem. ld has changed behaviour and has broken some packages that don't explicitly link to libraries.My example: Minutorgcc -Wl,--as-needed -o minutor minutor.o mapviewer.o colorschemes.o `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0` MinutorMap/MinutorMap.a /usr/bin/ld: MinutorMap/MinutorMap.a(nbt.o): undefined reference to symbol 'gzopen' /usr/bin/ld: note: 'gzopen' is defined in DSO /usr/lib/libz.so.1 so try adding it to the linker command line /usr/lib/libz.so.1: could not read symbols: Invalid operation collect2: ld returned 1 (HowTos)

I have been searching for this a bit on Google, and there are also some topics on StackOverFlow but they don't answer the main question: Why sometimes, under GCC on LINUX (and I mean Linux since on MinGW it doesn't happen with the SAME code), an application compiles and links correctly with other libraries, without any errors and then, on execution time, undefined symbols are thrown?

Why wasn't t

I'm trying to compile a game but it gives me the following error:

Code: configure: error: libz is needed I can't find no such package as "libz". I checked that zlib is installed but i'm not sure what's the difference between them. So any idea what i'm missing?

/usr/bin/ld: note: 'ceil@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO /lib64/libm.so.6 so try adding it to the linker command lineThis tells me two things...  you are not fully up to date  (binutils 2.22-9 would mentile /usr/lib/libm.so.6) and that the PKGBUILD needs fixed to add -lm to the linker line.

I recently decided to learn gtk+, so I installed the gtk3 developement package which contains all the necessary libraries, then I just wrote a simple program test which is supposed to display a gtk window simply and compiles it with the command below :

gcc `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtk+-3.0` main.c -o test

And the problem is at link time where I'm getting undefined reference to all the functi
