For those with version number= it=20 is only a compile time error, when make errornously tries to build a static= =20 target. Those without number are needed static by another package or don't= =20 like --disable-static (sys-apps/ed). That leaves 2 out of 845. So I'm with Ciaran here: It works for almost all packages and makes at leas= t=20 some difference. Maybe enough to (really) give the users the choice (withou= t=20 the ugly EXTRA_ECONF-hack)? Those links Jakub posted are interesting, but I don't find an explanation w= hy=20 this decission was made. Maybe you have a link to that discussion too? --nextPart4259676.IIKZ0KGLvp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBGNMs1IAIA2PPsul0RAjgzAJ90tms25pRYpHLPXyMwtBxCV4CysQCggRvF W/VOonzm5DY9VgxOM+3J63U= =4Ot1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart4259676.IIKZ0KGLvp-- -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
