I understand now.

This is managed by Cabal. I see no easy way to rebuild it with -fPIC. Cloning 
the sources from Gitlab and doing the full build would probably be overkill. 

I've mailed Bryan Gardiner, the author of Qtah with a brief description of
what is wrong. I'll do a full bug report, when requested.

Maybe I'll switch to WxHaskell.

Cheers,
Volker

Relocation is part of the linking process. Specifically, external
function calls must be given a real run-time address instead of some
placeholder.

R_X86_64_32 is a particular type of relocation, where the relocation
address is a 32-bit field.

I believe this might be caused by Qtah being built without -fPIC.

"... causes overflow in R_X86_... relocation"

2020-10-17 Thread Volker Wysk
Hi.

I have a litte program named "svumb", which compiles and links without error 
or warning message. But when I start it, this happens:

build/svumb: Symbol 
`qtahzmqt5zm0zi7zi0zm4ATcbzzMngNWCbnemaqWUdM_GraphicsziUIziQtahziGeneratedziWidgetsziQMessageBox_setText_closure'
 causes overflow in R_X86_64_32 relocation
(... long list of similar messages ...)
build/svumb: Symbol `stg_INTLIKE_closure' causes overflow in R_X86_64_32 
relocation
build/svumb: error while loading shared libraries: unexpected reloc type 0x0b

Do those messages make sense to anyone? What is a "R_X86_64_32 relocation"? 
What is a "reloc type"? What's happening??

Calling "sudo ldconfig" doesn't help.

The program uses the Qtah package, which is a Qt binding for Haskell. It 
might have something to do with this. It can't be linked statically, because 
then the following error occurs after starting the compiled and linked program:

.../build/svumb: error while loading shared libraries: libqtah.so.0: cannot 
open shared object file: No such file or directory

Compiling it dynamically had worked, but now I have the problem above.

Regards,
Volker
