Error log from T2 build system

Working on T2 building X86-64 all version 1.12.0 build except for this one.

I've attached the full error log in case it helps as I suspect it will be
needed.

Thanks, some direction would be appreciated.

Last few lines are;-

--- Comment #1 from Sebastian Dröge (slomo) <***@coaxion.net> ---
That's a problem caused by your taglib (libtag.a) build. It only provides a
static library, and that static library is not compiled with -fPIC. If you
build either a shared library, or build the static library with -fPIC, this
problem should disappear.

Thank you slomo. I'm at last down to my last few dozen problems and my brain is
not working properly a lot of the time!

Now for the dumb question, do you know what package has libtag.a in it, or a
command that will tell me?

many thanks
scsijon

told you it wasn't working, it's taglib of course, now to work out why it
didn't build properly.

sorry
