Title:
glew compiled without -fPIC flag
Status in “glew” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
I'm developing a shared library that uses GLEW. When I'm trying to
link it I get the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/libGLEW.a(glew.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against
`.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with
-fPIC
/usr/lib64/libGLEW.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
It seems that GLEW in ubuntu is compiled without -fPIC flag.
When I compile my library as static I get no errors.
