Building qtcreator with gold fails, because qtcreator explicitly sets an rpath using $ORIGIN: | QMAKE_LFLAGS += -Wl,-z,origin \'-Wl,-rpath,$${IDE_PLUGIN_RPATH}\' With gold linking fails, because "-z origin" is unknown. When removing the option the rpath is still fine though, so it seems gold supports $ORIGIN without "-z origin". Greetings, Armin
Thanks for the bug report. This has already been fixed in the development sources, and the fix will be in the 2.20 release.
