Yes, although the idea of the executable itself being statically linked is, I think, still valid as it makes the executable independent from whatever shared libraries may or may not be on the target system. >It might be better to create a script to make it easy to install BRLTTY >on any medium instead. Yes. Amongst other things, it should also configure with --enable-relocatable-install so that the whole hierarchy is self-contained. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
