Thank you for the fast fix.

I found this old reference:
https://github.com/robbie-cao/note/blob/master/libubox-on-ubuntu.md

The OpenWrt package now uses -flto for LD and C FLAGS
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/blob/master/package/system/ubus/Makefile

The following process build a libubus.so without install for me on a non-debian based distribution.
Let me know if you can build something for your test environment from this,
or if you would like me to try to demonstrate debian packages for libubox & libubus?

mkdir -p /tmp/openwrt
cd /tmp/openwrt

git clone https://git.openwrt.org/project/libubox.git
cd libubox
cmake . \
	-DBUILD_LUA=OFF \
	-DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF
make

cd /tmp/openwrt
git clone https://git.openwrt.org/project/ubus.git
cd ubus
LDFLAGS="-flto" CFLAGS="-flto" \
cmake . \
	-DBUILD_LUA=OFF \
	-DBUILD_EXAMPLES=OFF \
	-DCMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH=/tmp/openwrt/libubox \
	-DCMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/tmp/openwrt
make


Cheers,
