Build error

[btv]

First off, thank you for writing this. I look forward to it working.

I'm getting a build error when trying to "make":
gcc -Wall -I/usr/include/mysql -I. -shared lib_mysqludf_sys.c -o /usr/lib/lib_mysqludf_sys.so /usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccqmuRkb.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against .rodata' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/tmp/ccqmuRkb.o: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [install] Error 1`

I'm trying to build this on RHEL 6.3, with the Percona server (devel packages included). Any ideas?

hey btw,

I know it's a 4 months old issue but I got it working by editing the Makefile. Had to include two new parameters in the gcc call -fPIC and -DMYSQL_DYNAMIC_PLUGIN so it looked like this:

gcc -DMYSQL_DYNAMIC_PLUGIN -fPIC -Wall -I/usr/include/mysql -I. -shared lib_mysqludf_sys.c -o $(LIBDIR)/lib_mysqludf_sys.so

Just in case somebody else has this problem too.

Same thing under Debian Wheezy 64. Mahrton fix works.

In addition to mahrton solution I had to update LIBDIR in Makefile too, like this:
LIBDIR=/usr/lib/mysql/plugin

Thanks mahrton
