Title: linker complains of PIC instruction on object file not compiled as PIC Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Quantal, Raring, Saucy, Trusty work. i386 works. amd64 + precise fails. binutils amd64 2.22-6ubuntu1.1 /usr/bin/ld: ../src/third_party/ffmpeg/out/Release/obj.target/third_party/ffmpeg/../../../obj/gen/third_party/ffmpeg/yasm/deinterlace.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against symbol `ff_pw_4' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value It looks like deinterlace.o is the third object file in the linker line, but the first object file made from assembly, which is not compiled with a "-fPIC" flag. This is probably new because of this change: + * debian/control: Build-depend on binutils, which already includes gold + linker.
