Where is the patch that removes .text relocations from mplayer and xine-lib? Solar said on IRC that was one lying around somewhere. I searched on Gentoo Bugzilla and on the Web with Google and I did not find it.
Why? This is what I get from /usr/bin/xine (part of xine-ui) This is xine (X11 gui) - a free video player v0.99.3. (c) 2000-2004 The xine Team. Can't modify /usr/lib/xine/plugins/1.0.0/post/xineplug_post_planar.so's text section. Use GCC option -fPIC for shared objects, please. Hmm, there is already a PIC patch applied to xine-lib. -- gentoo-hardened@gentoo.org mailing list
