Description Jesper Toft 2005-07-31 06:33:47 UTC 
For some reason net-mail/vpopmail (5.4.6-r1) doesnt pass the CFLAGS to all subdirs.  
This means the subdir cdb/ will be compiled without -fPIC when the rest of the c files are compiled 
with... 
It doesnt give any error here, but emerging courier-authlib (0.55/0.56) will fail. 
 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. have CFLAGS="-fPIC" in make.conf  
2. emerge vpopmail  
3. emerge courier-authlib 
 



Fix:  
I fixed the problem by changing line 8314 in configure from:  
echo "${CC} -O2" > cdb/conf-cc 
to:  
echo "${CC} -O2 -fPIC" > cdb/conf-cc
