-fPIC is needed on quite a few arches. if the shared object is to big
you
either need to use -fPIC or change the code to make it smaller.
There are quite a few packages that use -fPIC for s390 s390x sparc and
sparc64

This is what's confusing me. Even on packages that use libtool (the libtool
manual says libtool is supposed to automatically add -fPIC to shared libs) I
get this error such as on libkexiv2-0.1.7-1.fc10.src.rpm
For what it's worth I was using -std=gnu99 and had some extra spaces in my
/etc/rpmrc. After removing those and now the following packages which did
have the error now compile
akode-2.0.2-5.fc9.src.rpm
libkexiv2-0.1.7-1.fc10.src.rpm
libkipi-0.1.6-1.fc10.src.rpm
libkdcraw-0.1.4-1.fc10.src.rpm
arts-1.5.9-3.fc10.src.rpm
kbibtex-0.2.1-19.fc9.src.rpm
User error somewhere?
