Problems Configuring (C Compiler cannot produce executables)

[Jeffrey Walton]

Hi All,

Any ideas on how to fix this? I was using -fPIC/-shared due to
limitations in Make and LDFLAGS. According to [1], we can use
-fPIC/-shared all the time.

$ ./configure CFLAGS="-Wall -Wextra -Wconversion -fPIC
-Wno-unused-parameter -Wformat=2 -Wformat-security
-fstack-protector-all -Wstrict-overflow -Wl,-shared -Wl,-z,noexecstack
-Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now"
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking target system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/home/jeffrey/Desktop/sipwitch-1.3.1':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details

-fPIC/-shared as appropriate,"
