Fails with errors about XRes.o not being compiled with -fPic like this one... /usr/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/3.3.3/../../../../powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: Error: The symbol `_XEatData' has a R_PPC_REL24 relocation, that means '/usr/X11R6/lib/libXRes.a(XRes.o)' was compiled without -fPIC. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge libwnck Actual Results: This is a major problem as it prevents gnome 2.6 from emerging.
