Comment 3 Angelo Arrifano (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-03-08 19:07:13 UTC
Today I was trying to make a python wrapper for XNVCtrl but:

swig -python -I/usr/include/ pyNVCtrl.i
gcc -fPIC -c pyNVCtrl_wrap.c -I/usr/include/python2.4/ 
ld -shared pyNVCtrl_wrap.o -o pyNVCtrl.so -lXNVCtrl -lX11 -lXext
ld: /usr/lib64/libXNVCtrl.a(NVCtrl.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib64/libXNVCtrl.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
make: *** [all] Error 1

So I made a quick fix allowing me to relink against the static lib on AMD64. nvidia-settings also works with the fix.

Maybe it's better to post the fix on #207543

Sorry about the spam.
