Hi,

What does "pic:True" do for a toolchain ?

I would have expected it to enable -fPIC and -DPIC flags. However, I just tried installing JasPer-1.900.1 with the dummy-dummy toolchain, and the flags were not there (and a futher build of GDAL failed because the symbols did not have PIC).

I discovered that only when adding --enable-shared to the configopts were the flags actually added (I suspect by the configure, rather than by EasyBuild).


Is this expected ?
