Comment 1 Jean-Pierre .Vial 2007-10-23 03:00:43 UTC
on Linux SUSE 10.1 x86_64 
for make so to succed, I must add
CFLAGS_SO=-fPIC
in the Makefile generated by configure
(by default, CFLAGS_SO is empty)
without this modification, the libraries cannot be linked
(problem with relocatable symbols, the ld error message
says "try recompile with -fPIC", and indeed this solves the problem)

Oddly, that doesn't seem to work for me.
