app-admin/keepassxc-2.2.2 requires -fPIC to compile

[soredake]

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/7.2.0/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: error: /var/tmp/portage/app-admin/keepassxc-2.2.2/temp/ccERKDVM.ltrans0.ltrans.o: requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against '_ZN16AutoTypeExecutor9execDelayEP13AutoTypeDelay' which may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC

app-admin/keepassxc *FLAGS+=-fPIC fixes build. I do not know if this is due to gentooLTO, can someone test?
UPD: seems gentooLTO is not related https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=fPIC&list_id=3710774

Hi @soredake , thanks for the heads up on this. As much as I'd like to include a workaround for this in this repo, unfortunately I have to keep things focused around the LTO goal, and this definitely non-LTO related. I'm going to have to close the issue for now, but if you find later that LTO does indeed affect this, I will for sure reopen it. Thanks!

i ran into the same problem and found that if you enable the autotype use flag for keepassxc, you need to use either *FLAGS+=-fPIC or *FLAGS-=-flto* or the build will fail (log)

i don't use any other use flags so i don't know what cflags they work with (but compiling without autotype works with the default lto flags)

is it lto-related enough? i could build the same version (2.2.4) fine with safe cflags before i started using gentooLTO

UPD: seems gentooLTO is not related https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=fPIC&list_id=3710774

the only keepassxc-related bug i see is the submitter's with -flto enabled

Ahh sorry, just saw this.

Fixed in master. Conditional LTO based on autotype for this package has been added.
