Thanks for the fix, Markus.

I patched the Debian package for Octave with your commit f760ab9 and released version 8.3.0-3 of the package. This seems to fix the building problem reported on the octave-image package (Bug#1052973).

Thanks for the report.

It's not easy to get that right in general unless we know how to tread all possible possible options for all possible compilers.

I hope the following change does "The Right Thing"™ in most of the cases now:
https://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/f760ab971d40

I pushed it to the stable branch. So, it should be part of 8.4.0 if there is another release before Octave 9.

Marking as ready for test.

This seems to be related to bug #64590.

If mkoctifile is called like this:


mkoctfile a.cc b.o


then file a.oct is created, as expected.

However, when adding a compiler option like this:


mkoctfile -fcf-protection a.cc b.o


file b.oct is created, unexpectedly.
