app-admin/keepassxc-2.2.2 requires -fPIC to compile about gentoolto HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @soredake , thanks for the heads up on this. As much as I'd like to include a workaround for this in this repo, unfortunately I have to keep things focused around the LTO goal, and this definitely non-LTO related. I'm going to have to close the issue for now, but if you find later that LTO does indeed affect this, I will for sure reopen it. Thanks!

i ran into the same problem and found that if you enable the autotype use flag for keepassxc, you need to use either *FLAGS+=-fPIC or *FLAGS-=-flto* or the build will fail (log)

i don't use any other use flags so i don't know what cflags they work with (but compiling without autotype works with the default lto flags)

is it lto-related enough? i could build the same version (2.2.4) fine with safe cflags before i started using gentooLTO

UPD: seems gentooLTO is not related https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=fPIC&list_id=3710774

the only keepassxc-related bug i see is the submitter's with -flto enabled

Ahh sorry, just saw this.

Fixed in master. Conditional LTO based on autotype for this package has been added.
