Hi Greg,
I did a little searching this afternoon to see if I could garner any information regarding the "R_PPC_REL24 relocation at”, error I was seeing, it appears to be reasonably common. From what I understand this particular error is in someway related to non PIC code being used with PIC code in shared or linked libraries and "The relocation is 24-bit; in other words, the absolute value for the distance from any call to the item called must be less than 2^23 (one bit is the sign). In this case, the distance is larger.” See for example http://linux.debian.ports.powerpc.narkive.com/7KtjPno2/r-ppc-rel24-relocation-libc-start-main-nptl-deallocate-tsd-out-of-range <http://linux.debian.ports.powerpc.narkive.com/7KtjPno2/r-ppc-rel24-relocation-libc-start-main-nptl-deallocate-tsd-out-of-range> What I did was this, using the following commands, Sudo make uninstall ./autogen.sh Then I edited Line 53 of the Make file to read CFLAGS = -fPIC. Then Sudo make install and finally wspr. Bingo, I now have a version of WSPR running on a G5 iMac and Ubuntu Mate 15.10 I still need to sort out a problem with the audio input on the iMac and Ubuntu but for the moment WSPR seems to be running. I’ll update on progress. Kind regards, Sean.
