Hello, I'm trying to compile ffmpeg 8.1.2 on Devuan (Debian) Linux. I got the dependencies together.When trying to compile it, I'm getting error's saying that I need to pass -fPIC. I tried setting -fPIC in the CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS. I set --enable-pic in the configure options. But I still get the error. Here's an example: /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libaribcaption.a(renderer_capi.cpp.o): warning: relocation against `_ZSt7nothrow@@GLIBCXX_3.4' in read-only section `.text' /usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libaribcaption.a(caption_capi.cpp.o): relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against symbol `_ZSt7nothrow@@GLIBCXX_3.4' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [ffbuild/library.mak:136: libavcodec/libavcodec.so.62] Error 1
You cannot link non-PIC code into shared objects. Most distributions build static libraries without PIC. So you can only link them into executables, not shared objects.Either build your own static libraries with PIC, or build ffmpeg in statically as well.
