What i know, is that the compiler doesn't have to produce position independent code for static executables, since those are loaded by the kernel in a fixed address and there is no need for rellocation, like say for shared libraries, as the linker does what it has to be done during linking. And the linker in this case is looking for static objects. Also by looking at the output libcap.a and libpsx.a were created before, which is why the linker doesn't complain about. So most probably Saul has moved away both libc.a and libpthread.a. > Pierre Best, Αγαθοκλής -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
