How to fix selective static linking in my PKGBUILD?

I could use help because I program mainly in interpreted languages and not compiled languages. I believe my problem is one of selective static linking.

My PKGBUILD has been revved up to the most recent version and the sources have been dropped for the last 'working' version of the target software.

My package is here:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ucsc … ome-tools/

The error I am recieving:

/usr/lib/libm-2.27.a(e_log.o): In function `__ieee754_log_ifunc':
(.text+0x15f2): undefined reference to `_dl_x86_cpu_features'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Any advice?

run "makepkg --log" and post the full logs .
They're likely large, consider putting them on a pastebin .

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1433347 you are correct you need to link everything statically or none of it statically.

Thanks @loqs this helps validate my suspicion.

How do you think I should proceed as I am not the creator of the make files?

I feel like this would be too much to ask of a package maintainer. What do you think of me just reporting this to upstream?

If not, is there an easy way to patch? I could use some help with that.
