virtualbox: setuid binaries need to be position independent
Last modified: 2015-02-19 11:30:29 UTC
virtualbox triggered the rpmlint check "non-position-independent-executable" which means there are one or more binaries that need to be compiled as position independent executable. To fix the issue add -fPIE to CFLAGS and -pie to LDFLAGS of the binaries in question.
the package will fail to build next month due to this
