Since both pear and sarti seem to be down, I don't have access to a
HPPA porter box. I'd appreciate help with fixing this.

Thanks in advance!

It seems that texttopdf is tried to be linked against
fontembed/libfontembed.a which is a static library (and as such is not
usually compiled with -fPIC). The solution will probably mean to either
link against a dynamic library libfontembed.so (compiled with -fPIC) or
to compile the static library linfontembed_pic.a with -fPIC before
linking against it.

Cheers

Luk

Ah, thanks for the hint! Will do that.
