• Bug#265564: apt-build: makes ./configure think you can't produce PIC

    From Sergio G.G@1:229/2 to All on Fri Aug 13 20:50:13 2004

    Package: apt-build
    Version: 0.9.5
    Severity: normal


    The gcc.wrapper and g++.wrapper scripts print some information ("Using:
    ...") to stderr. This behaviour makes ./configure scripts fail when
    testing if PIC flag works, so gcc won't compile with the -fPIC flag when
    it's supposed to do it, and some packages can't be built. I haven't
    tested it on architectures other than amd64, so I don't know if this is
    really important out there (PIC is not even supported on several architectures).

    Thank you very much,
    Sergio
