Обсуждение: compiling plpython compilation error

Hi all. Im having a hard time trying to compile the plpython package.
This is the error make gives me:

gherzig@vdb:/usr/local/src/postgresql-8.2.5/src/pl/plpython> make
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Winline 
-Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wendif-labels -fno-strict-aliasing -fpic 
-shared -Wl,-soname,libplpython.so.0   plpython.o 
-L/usr/lib/python2.5/config -L../../../src/port -lpython2.5 -lpthread 
-ldl -lutil -lm -Wl,-rpath,'/usr/lib/python2.5/config' -o libplpython.so.0.0
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.2.1/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: 
/usr/lib/python2.5/config/libpython2.5.a(abstract.o): relocation 
R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a 
shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/python2.5/config/libpython2.5.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libplpython.so.0.0] Error 1


This runs on OpenSuse 10.3.
python 2.5
postgres 8.2.5 ( and 8.3.0)

Any clues?
Thanks!

Well, I'd try following the error message's advice: use -fPIC not
-fpic.  Note that it's not real clear whether this needs to be done
for plpython, or libpython, or perhaps both; so you might well be
in for making a custom libpython installation.

Yes, i was trying to recompile plpy with -fPIC with no success, 
recompiling *python* with -fPIC did work.

Thanks!!
