Hi,

I have just tried to compile IceCat on my Lunar Linux box, and it was
running file for quite a while until:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libX11.a(ChkIfEv.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a
local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with
-fPIC
/usr/lib/libX11.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [libxul.so] Error 1

What is happening here? Does it want me to recompile X11 with -fPIC or
IceCat? And what exactly does recompiling with -fPIC involve?

Thanks,
Erin
