sijie commented on issue #6439: libssl.so should be linked dynamically into the libpulsar.so URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/6439#issuecomment-592994420 @aahmed-se In this use case, the customer is building a database plugin which is a dynamic linking library that will be shipped to all database machines. The customer will statically link `libpulsar.a` so they just need to ship libpulsar.a along with their library. They don't need to install `libpulsar.so` and its dependencies. However we shouldn't static link `libssl` in libpulsar.a, as this is a security red flag. we should just use whatever the libssl the system provides. Because if there is a security problem in libssl, all the machines can just update their own libssl library without rebuilding libpulsar.a.
