Lintian tag: static-link-time-optimization
Type: information
Description (from lintian-explain-tags)
The named member of the static library ships ELF sections that indicate the
use of link-time-optimization (LTO). The use of LTO in static objects is
usually a bug.
In the milder case, the library will work but is larger than needed. The
more serious case is indicated by the distinct tag no-code-sections. Those
libraries cannot work in Debian.
An object file shown here was usually built with the command-line option
-flto=auto.
