+Subject: Correctly implement -fPIC and -fPIE
+X-Git-Url: http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=dbus/dbus.git;a=commitdiff;h=8a92100bbed2ba5cb16a1ede36214fa7d2f43e43
+
+Correctly implement -fPIC and -fPIE
+
+* For security reasons we want possition independent code for libraries
+  and possition independent executable for executables
+* before we were just enabling -fPIC
+* now we correctly enable -fPIC and -PIE for libdbus and the bus respectively
+* propper LD_FLAGS are set for each also
