Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: externals Group: None

Status: Pending Resolution: Fixed

Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: cyclone and SELinux

Initial Comment: On a recent install of FC10 (planetCCRMA pd 0.39.3), SELinux doesn't like minimum/maximum from cyclone:

The pd application attempted to load /usr/lib/pd/extra/cyclone/minimum.pd_linux which requires text relocation. This is a potential security problem. Most libraries do not need this permission. Libraries are sometimes coded incorrectly and request this permission.

Message: anyhow, the problem seems to be, that your object have not been built with "-fPIC".

this has been fixed (to make cyclone compile on x86_64) with revision 10528 (january09)

so upgrade your cyclone sources, and all shall be well.

Message: since the problem with "text relocation" is (according to the link given) comes from an "incorrect build", it would be interesting to know who built the binary? yourself? Pd-extended?
