Bug#952815: grub2: Please drop TARGET_CCASFLAGS from debian/rules for 2.06 release

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz]

Source: grub2
Version: 2.04-5
Severity: normal
User: debian-sparc at lists.debian.org
Usertags: sparc64

Hello!

The upcoming 2.06 release contains a fix to set -no-PIE in TARGET_CCASFLAGS [1]
such that the current workaround in debian/rules will no longer be necessary.

The following patch should be applied to debian/rules once 2.06-1 is uploaded
to the archive:

 export TARGET_CPPFLAGS := -Wno-unused-but-set-variable
 export TARGET_LDFLAGS := -no-pie
 
-ifneq (,$(filter sparc sparc64,$(DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU)))
-export TARGET_CCASFLAGS := -fno-PIE
-endif
-
 # Ensure that debhelper doesn't try to set these; we need to be careful
 # about HOST_* vs. TARGET_*.
 export CPPFLAGS :=

Before 2.06, the workaround in debian/rules needs to be kept.

Thanks,
Adrian
