Ok, I've looked into it, and the problem seems to be in the libglob that is included in octave. When libglob.a is linked into liboctave.so, the linking fails because libglob isn't compiled with -fPIC. Included is a new patch for blob's Makefile.in, which should go in files. Also included is a new patch for the ports Makefile, removing the BROKEN state for octave. Unfortunately I can only test this myself on amd64. Could someone confirm that this doesn't hurt on other platforms, especially i386? Roland --=20 R.F.
