Ubuntu 17.10, QT4 and QT5 installed
everything updated, deps installed, other altcoins wallet built with qt gui.

make fails with:
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/QtCore/qglobal.h:1135:4: error: #error "You must build your code with position independent code if Qt was built with -reduce-relocations. " "Compile your code with -fPIC (-fPIE is not enough)." # error "You must build your code with position independent code if Qt was built with -reduce-relocations.

Changed configure.ac fPIE -> fPIC but does not work.

Any idea?
Thanks

Workaround was to edit configure.ac and change flags to fPIC.
Works

I can confirm. Changing from fPIE to fPIC resolves the problem. Should it go upstream?
