Re: Recompile with -fPIC (was building a patched ghc)
You've got an object file compiled with 32-bit code, hence the relocation error. fPIC won't help you much (the linker error isn't helpful.) It's a matter of sifting through the make output to find the file or files that aren't compiled in 64-bit mode.

Recompile with -fPIC (was building a patched ghc)
Hi all, I'm getting the same error as Alexy below in some 64bit linux system. What can I do? Adding -fPIC and also -dynamic does not seem to solve the problem. Also, this only happens with a perf build; devel1 works fine.

I am not certain, but this may be the same problem that I once had, and that was solved by updating to binutils-2.20. ld --version GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.20.1.20100303 Wolfram On Fri, Feb 18, 2011 at 11:34:03AM +0100, José Pedro Magalhães wrote: Hi all, I'm getting the same error as Alexy below in some 64bit linux system.

Re: Recompile with -fPIC (was building a patched ghc)
Thanks for the tip. I cannot easily update binutils. I am with version 2.17.50.0.6-14.el5 20061020. On another machine (32bit) it works fine...
