Errors are like
visibility.c:(.text+0x1a): undefined reference to `gpg_strerror'
look like rpath issue similar to [1]. But I have no clue how to fix it in meson,
which iputils uses. There are requirements for it in upstream [2], lack of it
leaded us [3] (and openembedded [4]) to workaround it. But that's obviously not
enough for i586 build. Any tip / hint to fix it?


Kind regards,
Petr

This is a "common" static build issue due to the fact that gcrypt does
not provide a pkgconfig file. To find gpg-error, a call to
cc.find_library must be added. I sent a patch a few minutes ago.
