[Comment 1 Shawn Leas 2003-12-29 15:00:57 UTC]

Google says it may be that this code does not like -fPIC. Checking...

[Comment 2 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) 2003-12-29 15:06:42 UTC]

Shawn, take out the -mcpu portion of your CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS and try this

[Comment 3 Shawn Leas 2003-12-29 15:51:58 UTC]

Nope. Seems that only removing -fPIC makes it go.

[Comment 4 Shawn Leas 2003-12-29 15:53:20 UTC]

I just upgraded to glibc-2.3.3_pre20031222... I wonder if I should re-emerge binutils / gcc...

[Comment 5 Tom Kiermaier 2003-12-29 19:30:25 UTC]

I'm having the same problem. How would you go about removing -fPIC?

[Comment 6 Jayson 2003-12-29 20:20:54 UTC]

This problem seems to be related to the patch xine-lib-1_rc3-configure-sparc.patch. Commenting out that patch in the ebuild caused the emerge to complete without errors.

This is on my athlon-tbird, not a sparc. Maybe the ebuild should check what arch it is on to decide whether to apply the patch. Or maybe the patch needs some work.

[Comment 7 Hermann Gundel 2003-12-30 03:05:40 UTC]

Same thing here. On my Pentium 4, commenting out the sparc configure patch did help, although I do not understand why. That code IMHO is not used on an Intel system ... 

[Comment 8 Paul Giordano 2003-12-30 03:17:45 UTC]

Got the same error - tried removing the sparc patch as reported, that seems to fix me too. Athlon MP system.

[Comment 9 jack_mort 2003-12-30 03:29:26 UTC]

Same problem... Same fix :-D (Athlon-XP)

[Comment 10 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2003-12-30 03:57:14 UTC]

maybe the patch should only be applied for sparc arch ?

[Comment 11 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2003-12-30 04:09:53 UTC]

only apply the sparc patch for sparc. Closes #36759.

[Comment 12 Sven Blumenstein (RETIRED) 2003-12-30 20:34:31 UTC]

Thanks for the fix Martin!
