I tried turning on the Yocto security flags and hit a compilation
error due to gtest not compiling. Adding -fPIC fixes the issue.
Since gtest only creates static libraries, compiling everything with
-fPIC might not be the correct solution.
it still is going to be linked with a PIE binary then it should be PIC
Yes, I should probably clarify that gtest itself compiles just fine, but
the failure occurs when you try to link against it. As an example from
the AGL project, dlt-daemon fails to link with security flags turned on,
with an error message indicating that -fPIC should be added.
