--disable-static doesn't affect the binary at all, when the package is instructed to build dynamic linked applications and libraries, it will do so, whether --disable-static is given or not. The reason for not including static libraries for libraries like gnome or xfce libraries is simple: nobody will ever use it because it's useless, and it saves a lot of space to not build/include them. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
