could not read symbols: Bad value error on musl based buildroot env on rpi2 config.

Greetings,

I'm trying to create a musl base env for my rpi2 and I'm getting the below failure.

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libpython2.7.a(abstract.o): relocation

R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.8' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/local/lib/libpython2.7.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Python build finished, but the necessary bits to build these modules were not found:
_tkinter bsddb185 dl
imageop sunaudiodev
To find the necessary bits, look in setup.py in detect_modules() for the module's name.

make[1]: *** [sharedmods] Error 1

my config can be found here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/14543009/

is it possible I'm having a bitness issue on the system? the machine I'm using to compile is 64 bit but the machine on which the fs exists is 32 bit. any ideas how to fix it?

Thanks.

This is bad, because it's trying to use your installed python while building
buildroot's host-python... This error happens while compiling host-python, right? You didn't show the last bit of the output.

Can you pastebin output/build/host-python-2.7.11/config.log?

(Note for others on the list: I suspect host-python is built for xcb-proto and
libxcb.)

Greetings,

the pastebin can be found at http://paste.ubuntu.com/14565509/

what makes it a bit weirder is that on my 64 bit gentoo machine (this is a 32 bit ubuntu 12.04 machine) it compiles well.

[Please don't top-post, but reply in-line like I do below.]

Hm, no reference to /usr/local/lib there...

First of all, can you confirm that this happened while building host-python? I
don't see what else it could be, but just to be sure.

Then, could you try to grep in the host-python build directory for the
occurence of /usr/local/lib? It must come from somewhere...

I don't expect it has anything to do with that, it's just that your gentoo
machine has a python installed in /usr/local while your ubuntu machine doesn't.
