#1011467 — Bug#961596: rebar: Remove -lerl_interface from ERL_LDFLAGS for Erlang 23

Package: rebar
Version: 2.6.4-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I'd like to upload Erlang 23 to Debian for bullseye, so we'll need to make
its reverse dependencies working.

One of the changes in Erlang 23 is removal of an outdated erl_interface
library.

Rebar adds '-lerl_interface' to ERL_LDFLAGS, which means that packages will
start FTBFS complaining about non-existing library (for example the esdl
package doesn't use erl_interface, but still FTBFS with Erlang 23 because of
rebar's trying to link it in).

I'd suggest to remove -lerl_interface from the default rebar config. Packages
that really depend on it will have to adjust anyway.

#1012331 — Bug#961596: Acknowledgement (rebar: Remove -lerl_interface from ERL_LDFLAGS for Erlang 23)

Hi Nobuhiro,

I've prepared an updated rebar package at
https://salsa.debian.org/erlang-team/packages/rebar/-/tree/master
It includes a patch which makes generating ERL_LDFLAGS dynamically: it
includes -lerl_interface if it's available.
Also, I've updated the formal packagig stuff (VCS headers, debhelper
compatibility level, standards version).
So, If the changes are good enough for you, I could upload the package.

Cheers!
