(ade@ cc'd as maintainer of devel/libtool)
Dear all,
I posted previously on the ports mailing list about problems that were
showing up with net/freeradius when built with gcc 4.2 on 6.x and on 7.x
amd64.
At that time I was wondering if there was an arcane problem in the
toolchain, maybe in libtool. In fact, the solution appears to be
straightforward, and not libtool's fault. radiusd was being built -pie,
which was the default from upstream. Patching the upstream Makefile.in
to remove -pie seems to resolve both problems. Thanks to Sean McNeil for
the report.
The moral of the story appears to be "don't use -pie with libtool". I
have no idea why the upstream Makefile.in is like this; I will chase it
with the FreeRADIUS developers.
I've just submitted ports/118425
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=118425
which should fix that, as well as chasing a heimdal shared library
version bump.
I believe those two fixes may qualify for committing during the current
ports freeze; I've alerted portmgr@ separately.
I've also incorporated a couple of other outstanding fixes, though I
realise that they may well not qualify to be committed alongside the
others because of the ports freeze.
Best wishes,
David
