Source: woo
Version: 1.0-1
Severity: important

Builds of woo on kFreeBSD failed because it tries to use the "gold"
linker, which is unavailable there:

  c++ -pthread -shared ... -o /«PKGBUILDDIR»/.pybuild/pythonX.Y_2.7/build/woo/_cxxInternal.so -fuse-ld=gold -Wl,--strip-all
  collect2: fatal error: cannot find 'ld'
  compilation terminated.
  error: command 'c++' failed with exit status 1
  E: pybuild pybuild:262: build: plugin distutils failed with: exit code=1: /usr/bin/python setup.py build
  dh_auto_build: pybuild --build -i python{version} -p 2.7 --dir . returned exit code 13
  make: *** [build-arch] Error 25
  debian/rules:7: recipe for target 'build-arch' failed

Please stick with the traditional linker, at least on kFreeBSD.
(FWIW, it looks like gold is available on the Hurd; that build failed
anyway because the compiler crashed.)
