This should be easy to reproduce in a current unstable environment. It fails with dpkg-dev 1.14.18 and it works with 1.14.16.6. The new dpkg sets default values for things like CFLAGS and LDFLAGS. Anyway, this is what I get in config.log: configure:2586: checking for C compiler default output file name configure:2613: gcc -g -O2 -Wall -g -O2 -fPIC -fPIE -fstack-protector -Wformat=2 -Wextra -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -Wl,-zrelro,-pie conftest.c >&5 /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib64/crt1.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S against `__libc_csu_fini' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../lib64/crt1.o: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status While a working one had this in it: configure:2586: checking for C compiler default output file name configure:2613: gcc -Wall -g -O2 -fPIC -fPIE -fstack-protector -Wformat=2 -Wextra -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 conftest.c >&5 configure:2616: $? = 0 Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
