Subject: [ruby-core:68025] [ruby-trunk - Bug #10830] [Open] LDFLAGS not honoured when linking libruby.so

Issue #10830 has been reported by Dagobert Michelsen.

----------------------------------------
Bug #10830: LDFLAGS not honoured when linking libruby.so
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10830

* Author: Dagobert Michelsen
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* ruby -v: both 2.1.5 and 2.2.0
* Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
During configure the libraries are detected with LDFLAGS used e.g. to defined a search direcrtory with -L. During linking of library.so in Makefile.in the line
~~~
$(Q) $(LDSHARED) $(DLDFLAGS) $(OBJS) $(DLDOBJS) $(DTRACE_OBJ) $(SOLIBS) $(EXTSOLIBS) $(OUTFLAG)$@
~~~
does not use LDFLAGS to find linked libraries (in my case libgmp.so not in a standard place).

When changed to this line linking works:
~~~
$(Q) $(LDSHARED) $(DLDFLAGS) $(OBJS) $(DLDOBJS) $(DTRACE_OBJ) $(LDFLAGS) $(SOLIBS) $(EXTSOLIBS) $(OUTFLAG)$@
~~~
