Public bug reported:

Trying to build the Mir and wlcs test suites on 18.10 Cosmic I get the
error:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgtest.a(gtest-all.cc.o): relocation 
R_X86_64_PC32 against symbol 
`_ZTVSt9basic_iosIcSt11char_traitsIcEE@@GLIBCXX_3.4' can not be used when 
making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

I doubt Mir is the only project to make use of libgtest in shared
objects. The libgtest should be compiled with -fPIC.
