it is written in the pkgbuild : # pacman.static build fails unless we keep the libtool files (or unless we link # the missing symbols inside the libarchive .a static lib, but that is dirty) options=(libtool) though pacman.static is no longer in pacman package, but afaik there is a pacman-static package on aur. it seems there are also a few other packages depending on libarchive, and I don't know about them. But I don't think doing static build is the common case.
