I've been reading that this is a common problem gcc-4.3 /usr/bin/ld: .libs/bytebuffer.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC .libs/bytebuffer.o: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[4]: *** [libakode.la] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/rpmbuild/BUILD/akode-2.0.2/akode/lib' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/rpmbuild/BUILD/akode-2.0.2/akode/lib' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/rpmbuild/BUILD/akode-2.0.2/akode' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/rpmbuild/BUILD/akode-2.0.2' make: *** [all] Error 2 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.35312 (%build) I'm just wondering if there are some flags I can pass the compiler instead of having to build the whole SRPM with -fPIC? It's definitly an easy fix, but compiling executables fPIC doesn't seem optimal performance wise -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/relocation-x86_64-errors-and-gcc-4.3-tp17562637p17562637.html Sent from the Fedora Test List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
