Hy. Recently I have completed my very own
AMD64 biarch lfs system based on lfs-6.1.
I have started stumbling on problems after
beginning to compile gnome. As it turns out
one must pass -fPIC to all libraries during make,
or it won't be possible to create some
shared objects.
I have a few questions about this:
1) why is this necesary? why is it that the
normal build process fails?
2) is there a way to know whether a library
is position independent?
Thanks,
Mihai
