But why is libX11.la missing? I can emerge libX11 using USE="static-libs" or USE="-static-libs" but libX11.la is not produced in either case. The emerge log when building libX11 always shows the following: Removing unnecessary ... x11-libs/libX11-1.4.2/image/usr/lib64/libX11-xcb.la Removing unnecessary ... x11-libs/libX11-1.4.2/image/usr/lib64/libX11.la So the .la files are being produced but are being removed afterwards. Does anyone else have a missing /usr/lib64/libX11.la file? Frank Peters
