Hi guys,

I am a 12.1 user. Yesterday I was trying to compile some scientific codes (in fortran) with the option "-static". The compiler complained as it cannot find the libbz2. I checked the installed lib and found both the libbz2-1 and libbz2-devel are installed. But none of them includes the static lib I need. The repositories I use includes openSUSE-12.1-Non-Oss openSUSE-12.1-Oss openSUSE-12.1-Source Updates for openSUSE 12.1 12.1-1.4 opensuse-education-i586 Both of them are from the http://download.opensuse.org domain.

Currently I walk around the problem by deleting the "-static" option in the Makefile. The code runs fine. But I still wandering where I can find the static lib? Or the only way is compiling from source code by myself?

Most packages sucha s bzip2 do not provide static libraries (if they do they can usually be found in a *-devel-static subpackage) so you have to either need to link dynamically or build your own bzip2.
