[PATCH] iproute2: use -fPIC in lib/

From: Andreas Henriksson <hidden>
Date: 2009-11-23 10:03:45
Subsystem: library code, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds

Possibly related (same subject, not in this thread)

The static libnetlink.a library is exposed to other users in Debian via the
"iproute-dev" package. Apparently people are interested in using it in their
shared libraries and would like to see the code be position independent.

Patch below makes the code under lib/ build with -fPIC.

See http://bugs.debian.org/547602

Resending patch since no comments has been received and it has not
appeared in the iproute git repository.
