I'm running an unstable amd64 system and recently ran into a problem compiling qvamps-0.96. The following error is given upon compiling which complains about the PIC flag needing to be set for compiling shared objects. I have attached a patch to the Makefile and my modified ebuild that worked for me (just made a quick diff...). This is a minor bug with a quick fix but I figured I'd help anyone else out and let the developers know as well. Thanks! x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc -s -shared libdvdread_wrap.o -ldvdread -o LibDvdRead.so /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.4/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: libdvdread_wrap.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC libdvdread_wrap.o: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [LibDvdRead.so] Error 1 !!!

Created attachment 93270 [details] modified ebuild: qvamps-0.96.ebuild This is my modified ebuild that fixed this compile error
Created attachment 93271 [details, diff] patch for ebuild posted above (qvamps-0.96) This is the patch required by the above ebuild
Just to say this ebuild is working for me too.
I'm working on the new 0.98 release.
ok, new version in CVS. The -fPIC issue is solved there. But I will not fix the 0.96 version, because I want to remove it in a few days in favour to 0.98 which seems to work well and has some bug fixes.

Thanks for getting on this! ~jtriley
