Linking failed when trying to compile the binary from the envoy 1.29.1

Title:
Linking failed when trying to compile the binary from the envoy 1.29.1

Description:
Call to envoy_cc_binary

envoy_cc_binary(
    name = "my-gateway",
    repository = "@envoy",
    deps = [
        "my-filter-lib",
        "@envoy//source/exe:envoy_main_entry_lib",
    ],
)

How I build the my-gateway

ADDITIONAL_BAZEL_ARGS=--disk_cache=/bazel-cache --repository_cache=/bazel-repo-cache
bazel-6.3.2 build -c opt ${ADDITIONAL_BAZEL_ARGS} //:my-gateway

Envoy proxy version 1.29.1, bazel version 6.3.2

My .bazelrc

import %workspace%/envoy/.bazelrc
build --features=external_include_paths

The error is as follows

Linking my-gateway failed: (Exit 1): gcc failed: error executing command (from target //:my-gateway) /usr/bin/gcc @bazel-out/k8-opt/bin/my-gateway-2.params

Thanks for reporting this.
Was the building successful with Envoy version 1.29.0? If not, what was the latest version that was successfully built?

i would check on @adisuissa 's suggestion first

the issue is related to gcc (cf https://www.spinics.net/lists/libreoffice/msg08609.html)

i would recommend using llvm via ci/run_envoy_docker.sh to ensure you have the correct version
