OpenCV, cannot build package, 'a local symbol cannot be used'

Hi
I'm tryin to build the OpenCV package from AUR.
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=1747

But i doesn't compile:

Any ideas on this?
i tried both backends, gstreamer and ffmpeg.

Re: OpenCV, cannot build package, 'a local symbol cannot be used'

After i searched a bit, i found out that they suggest with linking errors to do a "autoreconfig" and a "make distclean". When i try that, i get:

Re: OpenCV, cannot build package, 'a local symbol cannot be used'

libjpeg needs to be rebuilt with the -fPIC compile flags. Submit a bug report.

Re: OpenCV, cannot build package, 'a local symbol cannot be used'

As said, i subitted a bug report.
Twoday i grabbed the PKGBUILD of libjpeg and added the -fPIC option.

It build fine, and also OpenCV build fine with this option, BUT i can't start firefox anymore, error message: "Could not load XPCOM", also Konqueror could not run KHTML part, cause of an missing link of libjpeg.
So i installed the old package again.

Edit: i just saw that there is a new version of libjpeg and a new package in the repo. hope it works now.

Re: OpenCV, cannot build package, 'a local symbol cannot be used'

I pushed libjpeg-6b-6 to the repos that fixes this.  OpenCV builds fine with that version on x86_64.

Re: OpenCV, cannot build package, 'a local symbol cannot be used'

Hmmm, something is wrong here. I cannot build it with the new libjpeg package.

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../../lib/libjpeg.a(jcapimin.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

As a bottle to the sea message:

There is an easy fix when you get such messages as "X--tag=CXX: command not found".
Just type:

export echo=echo

And try again.

This is a bug in the script libtool that tries to EXECUTE the parameters (prefixed with X) as if there were programs,
unless the variable $echo is defined.
I don't know who the genius is who coded that, but thanks a lot... I actually had random program starting with X executing.
