I'm trying to avoid a reinstall. With profile 17, i found many packages |
| 16 |
required -fPIC to build (probably due to some mucking around i've done with |
| 17 |
hardened, and/or gentoo devs earlier force on of PIE in gcc that they later |
| 18 |
backed out.). yasm build is failing and saying try -fPIC. |
