Update: this was discussed in the thread starting at https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2015/04/msg00258.html and most of my concerns about static linking were debunked, so I intend to go ahead with this. I'll probably run it once through experimental to make sure it builds everywhere, but I don't expect any problems. -- Niko Tyni [email protected] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
