Package: libqt5core5a
Version: 5.6.1+dfsg-3
Severity: normal

I'm trying to enable Qt5 support for the lyx package I maintain.
I have already enabled hardening flags, and I get the following error when
building the package:

g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../../src/support -I../..  -Wall -Wextra

    ^


By default, -fPIC is used for shared libraries and -fPIE for
executables such as lyx. The latter takes precedence as it is later in
the argument list.
I can get away with the problem if I append -fPIC to CXXFLAGS but I
think this is not the proper solution, but a workaround.
A similar issue was reported also on Bug: #828878 and the fix was the
aforementioned workaround.


Kind regards,
Nick
