[vlc] Error when compiling VLC from source.

Hello all,

I'm trying to compile vlc from source, but I keep coming up to this error:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libavformat.a(allformats.o): relocation
R_X86_64_32 against `ff_a64_muxer' can not be used when making a shared
object; recompile with -fPIC

I've added -fPIC to both CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS within the makefile to try to
fix this, but I just get the same error over and over again. I'm running
this in virtualbox on 64 bit OS running Ubuntu 14.04

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and if this is the wrong mailing
list to post this
on, please let me know the correct one and I'll post there.

Thanks!

Ryan
