[vlc-devel] ASA support : unable to link with 64 bits CSRI library

[Gilles Sabourin]

Hello,


I know that Rafaël Carré have participated to ASA (can see "fix ASA building" 
on last march 2008 when looking to web git page...) and Dominique Leuenberger 
have packaged this library. I wonder if they are still concerned people.

Anyway, this is for information, since I have no contact with ASA developpers 
and no account : I have successfully compiled 32 bits vlc with CSRI, but this 
library fails to link on my 64 bits PC (tried also to compile it from git 
repository, with same result). I guess there is a missing -fPIC somewhere at 
CSRI compilation time :
