Description Flags
this should enable PIE none

Description Dhiru Kholia 2013-04-22 13:32:57 UTC 
Description of problem:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#PIE says that "you MUST
enable the PIE compiler flags if your package is long running ...".

However, currently gdm is not being built with PIE flags. This is a
clear violation of the packaging guidelines.

This issue (in its wider scope) is being discussed at,

https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1104

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

gdm-3.8.0-2.fc19.x86_64.rpm

Comment 2 Dhiru Kholia 2013-05-17 07:28:12 UTC 
Including "%global _hardened_build 1" in the .spec file should do the trick.
