Hi, When trying to compile ghc-6.4 from source on my amd64 using a 6.2.2 binary (obtained via gentoo portage), I get the following error message:
##### make all [...] /usr/bin/ghc -o ghc-pkg.bin -H16m -O -cpp -Wall -fno-warn-name-shadowing -fno-warn-unused-matches -i../../lib/compat -Rghc-timing -L../../lib/compat -lghccompat Main.o Version.o /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.3/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: Main.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `__stginit_Main_' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC Main.o: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status <<ghc: 6713240 bytes, 3 GCs, 68040/68040 avg/max bytes residency (1 samples), 6M in use, 0.00 INIT (0.00 elapsed), 0.03 MUT (0.03 elapsed), 0.00 GC (0.02 elapsed) :ghc>> make[4]: *** [ghc-pkg.bin] Error 1 ##### I added -fPIC to CFLAGS, LDFLAGS and the ghc options (the latter by './configure --with-ghc="/usr/bin/ghc -fPIC"'), without effect: ghc does not know an -fPIC, the other two attempts gave the same error message as above. What am I doing wrong?
