Description Philippe Normand 2023-10-09 03:14:52 PDT

I get a bunch of

mold: error: /usr/lib64/libbacktrace.a(dwarf.o):(.text): R_X86_64_32 relocation at offset 0x5d8 against symbol `<fragment>' can not be used; recompile with -fPIC

When building with clang and with mold enabled:

export CC=clang
export CXX=clang++
export LDFLAGS=-fuse-ld=mold

That's when linking JSC.

Comment 2 Michael Catanzaro 2023-10-09 05:46:27 PDT

Why do you have libbacktrace installed into /usr/lib64 as a *static* library? That's the problem.

Comment 3 Philippe Normand 2023-10-09 07:20:05 PDT

Indeed! Sorry for the noise.
