having a closer look at the output, i saw this is not a -fPIC issue: ... /usr/share/gwhere/plugins/descr 'glib-config --cflags gmodule' -fPIC ... in ${S}/src/plugins/descr/Makefile.in glib-config is called with '' instead of $()
I tried to compile gwhere myself but it failed too.

The same happened when I tried to compile it from sources - I guess I'll send author a mail, it looks like a bug in the sources. Or I'll try to fix it myself :)
I finally got it compiled: CFLAGS="-fPIC -Wall" ./configure --enable-gtk20 edit /src/main.c and add '#include <locale.h>' at line 27 make But this build is highly unstable, segfaults frequently, and is unable to open its own catalog file (failing with "There is no available catalog plugin").
x11-misc/gwhere-0.2.1 compiled for me fine. Looks like this is AMD64-specific. Martin Vysny: adding -fPIC solves the compilation error?
> adding -fPIC solves the compilation error? It seems so, but only when you make it by hand - CFLAGS="-Wall -fPIC" CXXFLAGS="-Wall -fPIC" emerge -u gwhere resolves the compilation error but fails on another error.
Created attachment 69228 [details, diff] gwhere-0.2.1.ebuild.patch Attached is a patch for gwhere-0.2.1.ebuild. Could You test if this solves the issue. This patch also changes USE as per bug 106560.
I had the exact same compile failure as the original poster (I'm also on amd64), and the patch solved the problem here. I've yet to experience any other problems with it.
Patch works fine... but is it the perfect solution? Now AMD64 users will have the binary compiled with -fPIC. Surely it would be better to remove the if use amd64 -> append-flags -fPIC and edit the makefiles so that only the libraries are built with fPIC? And to make this the same for all arches? Feel free to shoot me down, I don't really know what I'm talking about ;-) Jim
Created attachment 69556 [details] gwhere-0.2.1-r1.ebuild
Created attachment 69557 [details, diff] gwhere-0.2.1-locale.h.patch Please test this. It removes GTK1 support wrt bug 106560. Also: in first comment there is -fPIC, so I don't see the need to force it for all binaries.
Created attachment 69638 [details, diff] gwhere-0.2.1-amd64.patch AMD64 fixes.
Comment on attachment 69556 [details] gwhere-0.2.1-r1.ebuild Grmph... should not obsolete this one.
Fixed in CVS.
