C++ Compilation Error with --no-pie about football HOT 8 CLOSED

This compilation option is set here:

You can try removing it - and see if the environment still works (afaik we didn't test this configuration).

from football.

I think we can eliminate -no-pie flag fro the compilation, so please let us know if that helps you. If so we can remove it.

I've removed all 4 -no-pie flags, but new error message gives:

Btw, since there's a SDL2 error before, I've added a FindSDL2.cmake file by myself.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:33 (FIND_PACKAGE):
By not providing "FindSDL2.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has
asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "SDL2", but
CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "SDL2" with any of
the following names:

SDL2Config.cmake
sdl2-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "SDL2" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"SDL2_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "SDL2"
provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been
installed.

This looks quite strange. Can you paste your whole log (for example into pastebin)?

I'm running on Ubuntu14.04
I'd suggest updating to the newer ubuntu if possible.

Here's the error message when I delete -no-pie: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/5MgYDNvbBv/

And I also tried -fno-pie, the error message is a bit different: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RBZvQpy7pj/

from football.

Removal of -no-pie flag was pushed in v1.2 release.

There is a similar issues reported here:
explosion/spaCy#734
I that case problem was in GCC version. I think the best way to go would be to try newer Ubuntu.

Closing this for now, please reopen if still unsolved.
