[rrd-users] Relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object

Mon Sep 27 10:26:19 CEST 2010

Hi Joshua,

I have tried to run sh configure --enable-shared   CXXFLAGS=-fPIC CFLAGS=-fPIC CPPFLAGS=-fPIC but that did not help....

These are the Perl .rpm that are on my BB-server:

perl-Compress-Zlib-1.42-1.fc6
perl-5.8.8-27.el5
perl-URI-1.35-3
perl-HTML-Tagset-3.10-2.1.1
perl-DBI-1.52-2.el5
perl-Convert-ASN1-0.20-1.1
newt-perl-1.08-9.2.2
perl-HTML-Parser-3.55-1.fc6
perl-BSD-Resource-1.28-1.fc6.1
mod_perl-2.0.4-6.el5
perl-libwww-perl-5.805-1.1.1
perl-String-CRC32-1.4-2.fc6

Any other idea ?

I have no idea how I can solve this problem ....

Rgds,
Johan

	I solved a suspiciously similar problem yesterday trying to build net-snmp-5.5 against perl-5.12.2. Both were built from source on a 64bit CentOS VM using physical Opteron 8300's. The net-snmp-5.5 compile was breaking during 'make' complaining of -fPIC issues, too.  

	I rebuilt net-snmp-5.5 a dozen times with different strategies - all failed. I finally resolved the compile problem by rebuilding Perl with an explicit -fPIC. This might get you running: 

	CFLAGS='-m64 -mtune=nocona' ./Configure -des -A ccflags=-fPIC && make && make test && make install

	Given your reference to X86_64_32, you might not want the -m64 flag. Anyway, adjust or delete CFLAGS depending on your CPU's and architecture.

	After Perl was built, the net-snmp-5.5 compile ran smoothly without any fancy args.

	Good luck,
	Joshua

		Changes made to Makefile:

		CFLAGS = -g -O2 -fPIC -Wall -pedantic -Ws  ….
		CXXFLAGS = -g -O2 -fPIC

		Has anyone an idea how to solve this problem ?
