http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2699/temporarily-disabling-gold-linker-on-ubuntu<p>I'm trying out the Gold Linker to see if it will improve link time of our application. And it does, significantly. Occasionally, I need to use the GNU Linker. How would I go about doing this?</p> <p>I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and I installed the Gold Linker from the package manager.</p> <p>Thanks</p>enWed, 22 Feb 2012 09:50:29 -0500http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2699/temporarily-disabling-gold-linker-on-ubuntu/2788<p>Use a script setting the CC environment variable that calls gcc the -B option.

For example, I can run ntop (another application) as either a daemon or as a stand-alone application - it's all in the configuration of it, that's all.</p> <p>Have you read the manual? Searched the web? ....and still not found the answer?</p>RonFri, 16 Sep 2011 14:15:51 -0400http://linuxexchange.org/questions/2699/temporarily-disabling-gold-linker-on-ubuntu/2701
