    Description

      When trying to link libqlicenseclient.a into Squish's libsquishrunnerlib.so on arm64/aarch64 Linux, GCC is unhappy:

      Building /home/frosch/squish/8.0/qt5.15-qtlicd/lib/libsquishrunnerlib.so
/usr/bin/ld: /home/frosch/squish/8.0/qt5.15-qtlicd/src/license//libsquishlicense.a(licenseproviderqls.o): relocation R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 against symbol `_ZN8SquishQt10QArrayData11shared_nullE@@Qt_5' which may bind externally can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: /home/frosch/squish/8.0/qt5.15-qtlicd/src/license//libsquishlicense.a(licenseproviderqls.o)(.text+0x116c): unresolvable R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 relocation against symbol `_ZN8SquishQt10QArrayData11shared_nullE@@Qt_5'
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

      (I cannot tell if this is specific to arm64.)
