[Phylobase-devl] New phylobase build approach using static libncl (Was: Rcpp and OS X compiliation)

[François Michonneau]

Hi all,

It looks that we're still having some troubles building the package on R-forge.

Now, we get the following error message for the linux builds:
g++ -shared -L/usr/local/lib64 -o phylobase.so NCLInterface.o
ReadWithNCL.o ancestors.o descendants.o phyloXX.o reorderBinary.o
reorderRobust.o -L/home/rforge/lib/R/2.10/Rcpp/lib -lRcpp
-Wl,-rpath,/home/rforge/lib/R/2.10/Rcpp/lib -Llib/ncl -lncl
-L/srv/R/R-patched/build.10-01-29/lib -lR
/usr/bin/ld: lib/ncl/libncl.a(nxsassumptionsblock.o): relocation
R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a
shared object; recompile with -fPIC
lib/ncl/libncl.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

(For some reason, the Mac builds aren't updated yet)
