Description Guenther Deschner 2003-12-03 14:57:25 UTC 
samba3 (current CVS) can not be build on x64_64:

Linking shadow_copy_test.so
/usr/lib64/gcc-lib/x86_64-suse-linux/3.3.1/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:
shadow_copy_test.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 can not be used when making a
shared object; recompile with -fPIC

just compiling with fPIC solves the problem for me.

Comment 2 Guenther Deschner 2003-12-04 02:39:56 UTC 
please note that building on x86_64 in general works well (although i have not
yet tested the binaries).

the error pops up just with "make modules"

Fix build system in examples/VFS

OK it looks like the build system in the examples/VFS directory is pretty
broken.  This patch tries to fix it.  It seems to work on i386.  Please test on
x86_64!

You will need to copy config.sub and config.guess from the ../../source
directory.

Extra file needed

You'll also need this fragment of m4 code from ../../source in the examples/VFS
directory.
