Title:
  glew compiled without -fPIC flag

Status in “glew” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I'm developing a shared library that uses GLEW.  When I'm trying to
  link it I get the following error:

  
  /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/libGLEW.a(glew.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
  /usr/lib64/libGLEW.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
  collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

  It seems that GLEW in ubuntu is compiled without -fPIC flag.
  When I compile my library as static I get no errors.
