would it be adviseable to make pic a use flag that is automatically enabled in most profiles? This would allow us to build stages, grp and a prelinked livecd Pieter umm, i thought pic was automatic now and that pic should not appear in a user's USE flag I've been able to prelink without doing any PIC-magic (i.e. never knew there was something). The prelink binary did alter several programs (unmatching sha1sums) so I guess everything went fine. I wasn't convinced of the speed adjustement though, but then again, trying to run KDE 3.1 on a 120 Mhz w/ 40 Mb RAM isn't really a good idea anyway :) I'll invalidate this bug as emerging prelink works flawlessly without doing anything with PIC. Reopen if this isn't always the case (with a current Gentoo). |
