[Please Cc me on replies; I'm not subscribed to the list] Hi,
I'm looking at the failure of the mailutils package to build on mips and mipsel, as it's stalling the transition of krb5 to testing. The build fails with the error below, which I believe is probably due to a lack of -fPIC somewhere in the build process. The question is, where, as our current attempts to add -fPIC to relevant places don't seem to have fixed the problem. Is there any easy (or even logical) way of working out exactly where -fPIC is missing? /bin/sh ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link cc -g -O2 -g -Wall -O2 -o muauth muauth.o ../libargp/libmuargp.a ../libcfg/libmucfg.la ../lib/libmuaux.la ../auth/libmuauth.la -lgsasl -lgnutls -lgcrypt -lldap -lpam -ldl ../mailbox/libmailutils.la -lcrypt -lresolv -lpthread -lgdbm libtool: link: cc -g -O2 -g -Wall -O2 -o .libs/muauth muauth.o ../libargp/libmuargp.a ../libcfg/.libs/libmucfg.so ../lib/.libs/libmuaux.a ../auth/.libs/libmuauth.so -L/usr/lib -L/usr/local/lib/mysql /build/buildd/mailutils-2.0+dfsg1/mailbox/.libs/libmailutils.so /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so -lnsl -lm /usr/lib/libgsasl.so /usr/lib/libidn.so /usr/lib/libntlm.so -lgssapi_krb5 -lkrb5 -lk5crypto -lcom_err /usr/lib/libgnutls.so /usr/lib/libtasn1.so -lz /usr/lib/libgcrypt.so /usr/lib/libgpg-error.so -lldap -lpam -ldl ../mailbox/.libs/libmailutils.so -lcrypt -lresolv -lpthread /usr/lib/libgdbm.so /usr/bin/ld: non-dynamic relocations refer to dynamic symbol mu_gsasl_module_data /usr/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
