[SOLVED] gcc and clang hang indefinitely after update
After updating today, I get the same behavior when running gcc or clang. They each just hang, indefinitely. Even the most basic 'gcc --help' hangs.
Key fact: my update today included a new version of gcc, but NOT a new version of clang.
Can't be a coincidence that both gcc and clang behave this way, right? Reinstalling each did not work. I just can't think of what the common factor is for these two compilers.

Re: [SOLVED] gcc and clang hang indefinitely after update
Solid tip, thanks!
I had installed hardening-wrapper almost a year ago. Deprecated since then and noted in pacman log - shame on me for not paying attention. Both clang and gcc were invoked via hardening-wrapper. Removing it fixed my issue.
