Comment 3 for bug 640734

Hi,
I am getting the same error while trying to compile JNI lib. I compiled very similar library before on Ubuntu 9.04 32bit without any problems.

gcc -o libparportaccessor.so -shared -Wl,-soname,libparportaccessor.so
-I/home/lukas/jdk1.6.0_22/include
-I/home/lukas/jdk1.6.0_22/include/linux
net_zarubsys_parporttester_io_ParallelPortAccessor_linux.c -static -lc

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/crtbeginT.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `__DTOR_END__' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.4.5/crtbeginT.o: could not read symbols: Bad value

Ubuntu 10.10 amd64 (Lenovo W510 - core i7)

Thanks for any solution.
