Please help me to understand why it's bad to use -fPIC for the binary itself. > So I guess that you should be fine if you take my initial patch and > replace pariss with parisc* Will that still result in -fPIC being used for the binary -- but only on HPPA? PS: as you noticed, for the experimental upload just now I just set PIC unconditionally. From Debian Policy, -fPIC should *always* be used for .so files. So as I see it the remaining issue is to ensure that -fPIC isn't used or the midori binary, but is used for the .so files. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
