@fbartels do you recall seeing anything like this when you were getting the docker container working?

note that i tried adding -fPIC -optc-Os from what is checked in in master right now, from seeing https://www.fpcomplete.com/blog/2016/10/static-compilation-with-stack. It didn't change the error. It's the same on dockerhub too https://hub.docker.com/r/aviaviavi/toodles/builds/b6oq4ftbbfswrujqt8mqyzl/

when i remove the flags completely, i get issues running the binary on alpine. i'm going to try removing the flags and using debian:stretch instead. the final image should still be on the smaller side

[aviaviavi]

fixed with a8b73a7

[fbartels]

Hi, no I did not encounter any compilation issues during building. Should I check if I can make it to work with alpine again or do you prefer the current approach?

[aviaviavi]

The alpine image was still a bit smaller, so I think getting that back would be an improvement if it's an easy fix! No need to spend too much time though since the Debian route is indeed working :)

Thanks!
