I want to add x264 support in ffmpeg but compile error about a missing -fPIC flag during x264 compilation. I've manually added --enable-pic in the configure section of the ebuild and it works. emerge --info : Portage 2.1_pre5-r2 (default-linux/amd64/2006.0, gcc-3.4.5, glibc-2.3.6-r3, 2.6.15-gentoo-r5 x86_64) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.15-gentoo-r5 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3200+ Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre16 ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5, 2.4.2-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r8, 2.16.90.0.3, 2.16.91.0.2, 2.16.91.0.3, 2.16.91.0.4, 2.16.91.0.5, 2.16.91.0.6 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r3 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="amd64 ~amd64" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=k8 -mtune=k8 -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -ftracer -ggdb -pipe -mmmx -msse -msse2 -m3dnow" CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3.5/env /usr/kde/3.5/share/config /usr/kde/3.5/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib64/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /var/qmail/alias /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/texmf/web2c /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=k8 -mtune=k8 -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -ftracer -ggdb -pipe -mmmx -msse -msse2 -m3dnow" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig ccache confcache distlocks nostrip parallel-fetch sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://ftp.snt.utwente.nl/pub/os/linux/gentoo http://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/download/gentoo-mirror/ http://mirror.ovh.net/gentoo-distfiles/" LC_ALL="fr_FR.UTF-8" LINGUAS="fr" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X X509 Xaw3d a52 aac acl acpi adns alsa amd64 apache2 artworkextra audiofile avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts bluetooth bonobo bzip2 c++ cairo caps cddb cdr chroot crypt cups curl dbm dbus dga divx4linux dmx dts dv dvd dvdr eds emboss encode esd evo exif expat ext-png ext-zlib fam fbcon ffmpeg firefox flac foomaticdb fortran ftp gcc-libffi gcj gd gd-external gdbm gif gimp gimpprint gkrellm glade gmp gnome gnutls gphoto2 gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 gtkhtml guile hal howl idn ieee1394 imagemagick imap imlib imlib2 innodb ipv6 jabber java javamail jce jikes jpeg junit lame latex lcms ldap lm_sensors logrotate lzo lzw lzw-tiff mad mhash mime mng motif mozilla mp3 mpeg mpeg4 mysql ncurses nfs nls nptl nsplugin objc ogg oggvorbis openal opengl oss pam pcre pda pdflib perl php png posix postgres ppds python quicktime readline real scanner sdl silc speex spell ssl svg sysfs syslog tcltk tcpd tga theora threads tidy tiff tiff-lzw truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales vorbis xine xinetd xml xml2 xosd xpm xrandr xv xvid xvmc yahoo yv12 zeroconf zlib elibc_glibc kernel_linux linguas_fr userland_GNU video_cards_ati" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, LANG, LDFLAGS
