Hi! I just have an idea that may be useful: static port builds. This can help produce packages without any depends, which may be useful sometimes. Implementation seem pretty straightfoward to me: - Introduce STATIC_BUILD variable that changes usual build behavior - Process LIB_DEPENDS in a different way: check .a instead of .so.*, and fail if .a is missing, and .so is present (i.e. needed static lib is not available at all), don't add library ports to package depends - Add -static to CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS Any comments? I will try to experiment with this for now. -- Best regards, Dmitry Marakasov mailto:amdmi3@amdmi3.ru
