Static libraries should be build without -fPIC, unless there is a very good reason why it should need -fPIC. Please see policy section 10.2. I suggest you make a dialog_pic.a version instead. But I would really look into why it's not providing a shared version of the library and try to provide one. You probably want to talk to upstream about this.
