Summary	0009227: PRINT: compilation: gcc defaults to --no-as-needed, while Kali / Debian / ubuntu default to --as-needed, causing mishaps
Description	I reported that bug at Bug 120762 - PRINT: issue activating "Q" print format specifier [solved] , https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=120762, that was a level too high because gcc does right, here is likely a level too low because Kali inherits the settings from Debian? However likely someone here will know how to change .... or where to report for Debian. Reported because it can waste quite some amount of time to seek and not to find, and people with different systems can't help because they don't see the issue.

kali-bugreport 2025-06-23 05:05 reporter ~0020697	Can be reported to Debian in https://www.debian.org/Bugs/

daniruiz 2025-06-23 07:45 manager ~0020698	We provide this tool unmodified from Debian. So you should verify that you can reproduce those issues in Debian and then report them to Debian (or to the upstream project directly). See https://www.kali.org/docs/community/submitting-issues-kali-bug-tracker/ We don't have the manpower to investigate those issues ourselves.
