Re: Python recompile
First off, this isn't really on-topic for comp.lang.c, as it is a question regarding a linker, interacting with the results of various options given to a specific compiler. However...

But I still like the full-text search because very often I want to cite a book and I remember the wording more or less, so I'm looking for that exact point, which is easiest found by a full-text search. It's bloody useful to have an ebook form of the book. It's just not pleasant to read it. I like to sort of lay back to read a book and I can't quite do that on a desk. I don't use computers off of desks. I don't care for phones or tablets. Phones have a too small screen and tablets are too big, too warm, don't bend like paper and are just plain annoying, too. :) Paper is so much more concrete than a screen. No need to recharge them and so on. Omg, I didn't know there were so many reasons... Funny is that the only real reason I really have for no reading on-screen is that I just don't want to. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

That's quite right, which is why I also love to have an ebook form of them. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
Python recompile

Re: Python recompile
I think Python compiles with fPIC by default. Something else had happened to the OPs checkout that caused these errors. OP needs to better describe what they were doing to properly understand the problem.
