Disable PIE and PIC defaults in gcc on ubuntu 17.04?

I had the same problem and just solved it thanks to this post on Stack Overflow.

You should add -no-pie option to compilation command line

without:

$ gcc main.c -o main
$ file main 
main:ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32,
BuildID[sha1]=46ada4e5e25fc120ca052c9beb8bfa5491fc6239, not stripped

with:

$ gcc main.c -o main -no-pie
$ file main
main: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32,
