Re: Recompile with -fPIC (was "building a patched ghc")

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. 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.

Thanks, Pedro

An attempt to build the trunk gets me this:

/opt/portage/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.2.4/../../../../x86_64- pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: rts/dist/build/RtsStartup.dyn_o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against symbol `StgRun' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

-- I use prefix portage on a CentOS box, admittedly a non-standard setup. Its gcc is found first and it wants -fPIC... Should I just add it to CFLAGS or what?
