Well, as I said, it works for me, no need do add -fPIC. You may want to ask upstream about it, but otherwise there isn't much I can do. I'm not going to add -fPIC if it is not really necessary. Thanks for reporting, anyway.
Created attachment 95159 [details, diff] Add -fPIC in the relevant Makefiles Hello, I've just been bitten by this bug. Could it be reopened ? Attached is a patch that adds -fPIC only where it is needed. As the same object files are used to build executable and shared object, this result in some part of the executables'code to be PI, but I guess it isn't such a big deal and I prefer to leave the build system reorganisation to upstream :).
Created attachment 95160 [details, diff] swftools-0.7.0.ebuild.patch and this is the associated ebuild patch.

Comment on attachment 95159 [details, diff] Add -fPIC in the relevant Makefiles Actually it is a problem, there really shouldn't be any PIC-objects in executables (except for hardened)
(In reply to comment #9) > (From update of attachment 95159 [details, diff] [edit]) > Actually it is a problem, there really shouldn't be any PIC-objects in > executables (except for hardened) > I agree, but is it a hard rule ? I thought it was only a performance problem. (please correct me if I'm wrong). Well, if it's really unacceptable, maybe I'll find some time to see if I can do this better (or at list see if upstream would be willing to fix this). Probably not right now though, I'm somewhat busy :)
I had a closer look at the build system and now it is clear to me why it works fine here but not for you: The ebuild doesn't install any libraries, except for the python bindings, which are only built if some obscure requirements related to python are met. Since there's no configure switch for it and nothing in the tree depends on swftools anyway, I decided to just disable them. swftools-0.8.0 should build for everybody now.
