[jira] [Updated] (MYNEWT-858) Test package lflags ignored by `newt test`

["Christopher Collins (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYNEWT-858?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Christopher Collins updated MYNEWT-858:
---------------------------------------
    Description: 
If you add the following to a test package:

{noformat}
pkg.lflags:
    - "-foo"
{noformat}

and then test the package with `newt test`, the flag does not get passed to gcc during linking.

Newt currently only reads lflags from the following package types:
* target
* app
* bsp
* compiler

At the very least, the test package's lflags should be used when a unit test is linked via {{newt test}}.  Alternatively, it may make more sense to gather the lflags from all constituent packages during the link phase.
