Why?
Because, according to my submit request, in Factory glib2 has a dependency on -lpcre in the pkg-config file, but only for the static library.
qemu is built twice, once dynamically (for qemu-system-* and tools), once statically for linux-user (qemu-*).
-lpcre caused the static build to fail. This and another weird glib2 issue on 11.4 (clock_gettime undefined) is what's keeping us from updating qemu (and in turn kvm) to 1.1-rc1 in Factory for 12.2.
Why do you need qemu built statically? Is it really necessary?
pcre is notorious for security problems and a single shared library is required so we do not need to rebuild lots of pavkages.
So if you want to fix this differently in glib2, fine with me, but we need a fix and we need it quickly since we're already behind the 12.2 roadmap.
Any insights into what's going wrong on 11.4 would also be nice, so that we can upgrade Virtualization and in turn openSUSE:Factory.
static makes funny things happening :/
Thanks, Andreas
