Hi all, I'm trying to get synfig (http://www.synfig.com) into debian, and there is one last issue before I start harassing my sponsors/co-maintainers to upload it. Lintian complains about shlib-with-non-pic-code on one of the plugins, and the main lib. I think the problem with the plugin is that it statically links against libavcodec-dev and libavformat-dev (which don't have associated shared libraries). Would it be ok to ignore/override this error for this plugin? I've searched the build logs and the only object file compiled without -fPIC is the embedded copy of libltdl statically linked into the library. Does anyone have any advice for how to fix this? Is this going to require autoconf/automake changes? What solution should I pursue with upstream that will allow them to keep the libltdl copy for platforms where it is needed? More information for this can be found in the pkg-synfig svn repo, and I've uploaded the latest svn stuff here: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/synfig/synfig_0.61.04-1.dsc http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/synfig/synfig_0.61.04-1.diff.gz http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/synfig/synfig_0.61.04.orig.tar.gz -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
