Bug#560068: libslang2: Library reduction for Debian Installer fails
Package: libslang2
Version: 2.2.2-1
Severity: serious
Tags: d-i
Justification: Breaks Debian Installer image builds
Since the update of libslang2 earlier today building Debian Installer images
on amd64 fails during library reduction (mklibs) with:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib//libslang.a(sldisply.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.bss' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib//libslang.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Command failed with status 1 : gcc -nostdlib -nostartfiles -shared -Wl,-soname=libnewt.so.0.52 -unewtVerticalScrollbar -unewtPopHelpLine -unewtTextboxSetHeight -unewtFormSetHeight -unewtCompactButton -unewtListbox -unewtCheckboxSetFlags -unewtSetColors -unewtListboxSetCurrent -unewtCenteredWindow -unewtListboxAppendEntry -unewtDrawForm -unewtScaleSet -unewtForm -unewtPushHelpLine -unewtFormSetBackground -unewtFormWatchFd -unewtDefaultColorPalette -unewtFormSetTimer -unewtRefresh -unewtFormAddComponent -unewtPopWindow -unewtGetScreenSize -unewtSetHelpCallback -unewtScale -unewtFormRun -unewtFormSetWidth -unewtCls -unewtFormSetCurrent -unewtEntry -unewtInit -unewtRunForm -unewtListboxGetCurrent -unewtCheckbox -unewtComponentTakesFocus -unewtDrawRootText -unewtFormDestroy -unewtTextboxSetText -unewtFormAddComponents -unewtFinished -unewtTextbox -unewtEntrySet -unewtLabel -unewtTextboxGetNumLines -o ./tmp/netboot/tree/lib/libnewt.so.0.52-so /usr/lib//libnewt_pic.a -Wl,--version-s

I've verified that the udeb used during the D-I build has the same version
as the libslang2 packages installed on the system.
