Tag: specific-address-in-shared-library
Severity: error
Check: libraries/shared/relocation
Renamed-From:
shlib-with-non-pic-code
Explanation: The listed shared libraries contain object code that was compiled
without -fPIC. All object code in shared libraries should be recompiled
separately from the static libraries with the -fPIC option.
.
Another common mistake that causes this problem is linking with
<code>gcc -Wl,-shared</code> instead of <code>gcc -shared</code>.
.
In some cases, exceptions to this rule are warranted. If this is such a
case, follow the procedure outlined in Policy and then please document
the exception by adding a Lintian override to this package.
.
To check whether a shared library has this problem, run <code>readelf
-d</code> on the shared library. If a tag of type TEXTREL is present, the
shared library contains non-PIC code.
