Package: pam-dbus Version: 0.1-1 Severity: important Justification: fails to build from source
Presumably due to an upstream build-system bug, pam-dbus neglects to use -fPIC despite checking for it, resulting in a build failure on amd64 (though surprisingly not on other architectures which I thought were also strict): http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=pam-dbus;ver=0.1-1;arch=amd64;stamp=1224940876 checking for g++ option to produce PIC... -fPIC checking if g++ PIC flag -fPIC works... yes [...] make[3]: Entering directory `/build/buildd/pam-dbus-0.1/src' gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I.. -DSBINDIR=\"/usr/sbin\" -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -g -O2 -pipe -Wall -L/lib -c -o pam_dbus_so-pam_dbus.o `test -f 'pam_dbus.c' || echo './'`pam_dbus.c /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link gcc -DSBINDIR=\"/usr/sbin\" -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -g -O2 -pipe -Wall -L/lib -o pam_dbus.so -shared --strip-all pam_dbus_so-pam_dbus.o -ldbus-glib-1 -ldbus-1 -lgobject-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -ldbus-1 -lglib-2.0 -ldl -lpam -lpam_misc mkdir .libs gcc -DSBINDIR=\"/usr/sbin\" -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/dbus-1.0 -I/usr/lib/dbus-1.0/include -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -g -O2 -pipe -Wall -o pam_dbus.so -shared --strip-all pam_dbus_so-pam_dbus.o -L/lib -ldbus-glib-1 /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so -ldbus-1 /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so -ldl -lpam -lpam_misc /usr/bin/ld: pam_dbus_so-pam_dbus.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC pam_dbus_so-pam_dbus.o: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [pam_dbus.so] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/build/buildd/pam-dbus-0.1/src' -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
