I downloaded PJSIP 2.6 to build locally, and while running on Ubuntu 16.04 it all compiled fine and ran. Now I moved to Ubuntu 17.04 and wanted (needed) to rebuild, so I did make clean && configure && make dep all and got the following error: /usr/bin/ld: /home/odeda/cvs/pjsip/pjlib/lib/libpj-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.a(guid_simple.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S against `.bss' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Nonrepresentable section on output collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Googling, I've seen various posts of how to set up flags to configure to workaround this problem, but none worked for me. My current command looks like this: make clean && ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local CPPFLAGS=-fPIC CXXFLAGS=-fPIC CFLAGS=-fPIC && make dep all (I've seen both CXXFLAGS and CPPFLAGS being recommended on this list) but it still fails. Any help will be greatly appreciated. -- Oded Arbel oded.arbel@greenfieldtech.net [image: Greenfield Tech] <http://greenfieldtech.net/>
