Hello!
The objcopy --weaken command suggests that it is able to change all
(global) symbols to weak. Running it against an object file it does it,
but running it against a shared lib does not change anything.
Is this correct behaviour (tested 2.15.92.0.2/2.16.1/2.16.91.0.7)?
I have also tried to do it w/ objcopy -w -W * lib.so, but that returns the
help (this should work as of man page)
Creating a list and using --weaken-symbols=list does not solve it either.
Thanks, Peter
