Complie with -fPIC error while installing cvxopt for python 3 in ubuntu 14.04










1















I am trying to install cvxopt using the git option provided in the cvxopt documentation. When I run



..:~/cvxopt/$ python3 setup.py install


I get the following error:



x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc -pthread -shared -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -g -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Werror=format-security -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.4/src/C/umfpack.o -lumfpack -lcholmod -lamd -lcolamd -lsuitesparseconfig -llapack -lblas -lrt -o build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.4/cvxopt/umfpack.cpython-34m.so

/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1
