Hi all,
The test for checking "-no-pie" support of GCC doesn't seem to work. See below:
$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-4)
Copyright (C) 2010 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions. There is NO

$ echo 'int main() { return 0; }' > conftest.c
$ if gcc -o conftest -no-pie conftest.c > /dev/null 2>&1 ; then echo
YEP ; else echo NOPE ; fi
YEP
$ if gcc -o conftest -no-pie conftest.c ; then echo YEP ; else echo NOPE ; fi
gcc: unrecognized option '-no-pie'
YEP
$ if gcc -o conftest -no-pie conftest.c > /dev/null ; then echo YEP ;
else echo NOPE ; fi
gcc: unrecognized option '-no-pie'
YEP
Is the test supposed to check that there is nothing output into stdout?
If so, it seems to fail. It leads to lots of failures when "make
test", because gcc gets chatty.
Cheers,
Gabor
PS: I have bash 4.1.
