--- Comment #1 from Balint Reczey <balint at balintreczey dot hu> ---
Also please fix the error message emitted when trying to link a non-PIE non-PIC
static library to a position independent executable:
$ cat m.c
#include <zlib.h>
int main() {
gzopen(0,0);
return 1;
}
$gcc -pie m.c -lz
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/cchMINoQ.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined symbol
`gzopen' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
$ gcc --version
gcc (Debian 6-20160228-1) 6.0.0 20160228 (experimental) [trunk revision 233789]
One better error message could be:
`gzopen' can not be used when making a position independent executable;
recompile with -fPIC or -fPIE
I can open a separate bug for that but this is closely related to the
clarifications asked here.
