tags 625161 +pending thanks Hi!
The failure to build is caused by the -pic flag that's added in the debian/rules file to the LDFLAGS. This flag doesn't seem to have ever existed, but it was ignored in the past and it now creates a failure to build. Attached is a debdiff output of a package fixing this problem. I intend to upload this as an NMU to the 0-day delayed queue. The package is also in need of some general love, but I won't be touching this. -- Love, Marga
