Lintian tag: shared-library-lacks-stack-section

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The listed shared library lacks a PT_GNU_STACK section. This forces the
dynamic linker to make the stack executable.

The shared lib is linked either with a non-GNU linker or a linker which is
very old. This problem can be fixed with a rebuild.

To see whether a shared library has this section, run readelf -l on it and
look for a program header of type GNU_STACK.
