Thanks bug reading bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=684116 it

sponsors until that's resolved, no need to have the discussion in 2
different bug trackers

Title:
  SuiteSparse fails to link in shared library due to missing -fPIC in
  libsuitesparseconfig.a

Status in suitesparse package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in suitesparse package in Debian:
  Unknown

  The config library is only available as a .a which is not compiled
  with -fPIC. Thus, linking into shared libraries fails on AMD64.

  Attaching a minimal program to trigger the bug.
