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

Tue Sep 28 08:33:31 CEST 2010

Joshua,

So, you did not use the Perl modules coming with the Red Hat Linux OS. You just downloaded them from perl.org and compiled yourself. Do I need the whole perl suite of just a part of it ?

Rgds,
Johan

	I had to rebuild Perl with those flags; that's what let all the dependent src tarballs (e.g. net-snmp, rrdtool) build. Furthermore, I didn't have to do anything fancy with the dependent tarballs; they built without anything tricky.

	Good luck,
	Joshua

		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

		Any other idea ?

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

			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
