https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=238552 ------- Comment #15 from andreas.hanke@gmx-topmail.de 2007-02-07 05:54 MST ------- It has to work in principal. I'm regularly building semi-static binaries of wxGTK applications, where wxGTK is static and the rest, including GTK, shared. wxGTK certainly has references to GTK and it works. But it's certainly painful if the tools are not designed to work with it. pkg-config has a --static switch to print out all indirect dependencies, including those which are useless for shared linking, but necessary for static linking. In this case, it's a bug in libgnome-2.0.pc. It misses a line like this: Libs.private: -lesd But I doubt that fixing such issues is worth the hassle. I think that more or less all packages have something like that somewhere and nobody is seriously trying to build static GNOME programs anyway. (That's why nobody noticed or cared about this bug in libgnome-2.0.pc.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
