Subject: mpeg2dec FTBFS on amd64 - not using -fPIC.

Date: Sun, 16 May 2004 00:12:57 +0200

Package: mpeg2dec
Version: 0.4.0b-1
Severity: important

It fails to build with this error:
/usr/bin/ld: .libs/rgb.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S can not be used when making a
shared object; recompile with -fPIC

On AMD64 we do not support non-pic code.

Eek. Sorry I took so long to fix.  Patch applied and uploaded.  Too bad
-prefer-non-pic is so broken on every architecture.  Even mpeg2dec's
check to see if it's broken is broken it seems.  Oh well.
