Description Alexander Larsson 2004-01-26 11:56:30 UTC
Linking to libXRes from libwnck gives me:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/X11R6/lib64/libXRes.a(XRes.o): relocation
R_X86_64_32 can not be used when making a shared object; recompile
with -fPIC
/usr/X11R6/lib64/libXRes.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

I'd like the .a built with -fPIC.

* Sat Jan 31 2004 Mike A. Harris <mharris> 4.3.0-45.0.2
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-Xserver-dix-xkb-key-repeating-bug-CVS-backport.patch
  to fix a bug in DIX when xkb is being used that causes keys to repeat
  spuriously on some hardware under certain system loads.  This patch
has been
  backported from the 4.3.0-48 developmental head package. (#76959,114635)
- Added XFree86-4.3.0-XRes-IncludeSharedObjectInNormalLib.patch to make
  libXRes get built PIC for bug (#114292)
- Updated XFree86-4.3.0-missing-lib-sharedreqs.patch to remove
dependancy on
  libXt caused by improper dependancy listing in SharedXmuuReqs (#113336)
