Package: expat
Version: 2.0.1-7.2
Severity: important

According to policy 10.2, shared libraries -and for some arches,
static libraries as well- should be built with -fPIC in the CFLAGS. In
this case it's breaking the soon-to-be-official armhf port according
to the build logs:

http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=opal&arch=armhf&ver=3.6.8%7Edfsg-2.1&stamp=1320192217
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=ptlib&arch=armhf&ver=2.6.7-2.1&stamp=1320192343

Regards

Konstantinos
