Hi,

I need help to build parrot for x86_64.

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libreadline.a(readline.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `rl_get_previous_history' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/lib/libreadline.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

Does it ask to recompile readline.o with -fPIC?

First of all, compiling static is stupid, but anyways, this is a bug in the readline package. The static lib should be compiled with -fPIC on x86_64. File a bug.
