           Summary: Unable to compile with ldflag: --as-needed
           Product: Xfce Panel Plugins
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC (x86)
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Medium
         Component: systemload
        AssignedTo: goodies-dev at xfce.org
        ReportedBy: genthree at gmail.com


User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1)
Gecko/20060601 Firefox/2.0 (Ubuntu-edgy)
Build Identifier: 

A while aso I read somewhere that if I compile with --as-needed in the ldflags,
apps link much less libraries so they will start faster...

I completely compiled Xfce from svn using these linker flags: "-Wl,-O1
-Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,--sort-common -Wl,--as-needed -s";

All built just fine, except for the systemload plugin...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use these ldflags: "-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--enable-new-dtags -Wl,--sort-common
-Wl,--as-needed -s"
2. compile xfce4-systemload-plugin
3. unable to complete the compile

Actual Results:  
~500 lines like these:
xfce4_systemload_plugin-systemload.o: In function `main':
systemload.c:(.text+0x1c): undefined reference to `gtk_init'
systemload.c:(.text+0x35): undefined reference to
`xfce_external_panel_plugin_new'
systemload.c:(.text+0x6b): undefined reference to `g_signal_connect_data'
...
