[hardening-discuss] fPIC abd fPIE

[Sandro Knauß]

Hey,

I'm unsure if I'm writing to the right people, but I want to understand the 
difference between -fPIE and -fPIC. So far I want to enable cpp/qt bindings 
for gpgme. This works if I disable -fPIE but fails if I enable it. The error 
is that Qt wants to -fPIE disabled and I'm wondering if that is is a wrong 
assumption inside Qt or if is really a problem. Because at the end lintian is 
not happy about the missing -fPIE for one executable. Maybe you can help here, 
point to the right people or give me links to read it myself...
