Thanks bug reading bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=684116 it seems the Debian maintainer disagrees with the change, unsubscribing sponsors until that's resolved, no need to have the discussion in 2 different bug trackers ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #684116 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=684116 ** Also affects: suitesparse (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=684116 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Changed in: suitesparse (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319687 Title: SuiteSparse fails to link in shared library due to missing -fPIC in libsuitesparseconfig.a To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/suitesparse/+bug/1319687/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1319687] Re: SuiteSparse fails to link in shared library due to missing -fPIC in libsuitesparseconfig.a
Hi Budo, I don't think your approach is the right one, working against the package maintainer's intent to provide both types of libraries, one with -fPIC and one without. Check out my update to Debian bug #684116: the package already builds a libsuitesparseconfig_pic.a and simply misses to include it in the binary .deb file. I noticed when going through the patches that were already in the package before yours. ** Patch added: "include libsuitesparseconfig_pic.a in libsuitesparse-dev" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/suitesparse/+bug/1319687/+attachment/4322785/+files/fix-684116.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319687 Title: SuiteSparse fails to link in shared library due to missing -fPIC in libsuitesparseconfig.a To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/suitesparse/+bug/1319687/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've added a fix to official libraries and packaged it in my ppa. To install libraries with a fix of this bug, do the following: 1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:bzindovic/suitesparse-bugfix-1319687 2. sudo apt-get update 3. sudo apt-get upgrade I hope it will be resolved in the official package. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1319687 Title: SuiteSparse fails to link in shared library due to missing -fPIC in libsuitesparseconfig.a To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/suitesparse/+bug/1319687/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

** Description changed: The config library is only available as a .a which is not compiled with -fPIC. Thus, linking into shared libraries fails on AMD64.
