Description Jochen Görnitz 2004-09-08 11:34:13 UTC

when compiling nas a relocation error to libXau.a occurs. Seems to be that -fPIC
is missing during compile. Couldnt locate twhere it is mssing in the imakefile,
but it appears in 6.7.0 and in the latest rc.

It should be made a shared library.  I wish I had noticed this issue before
release so it could have been fixed.

Comment 2 Alan Coopersmith 2005-10-08 16:23:13 UTC

libXau has been made shared for Xorg 6.9 & 7.0.
