Is this possible?
Of course it is possible, if it is all GPL software. But, how much work is involved is unknown. So you are saying that you can't install just the gnome libs on your new Slackware box? > I tried doing that but did not work.

You would do something like this: .configure --include=/path/to/lib \ --include=/path/to/another/lib or there should be some instructions with gphpedit specifying exactly how to do it. Concerning how to compile it statically, I do not know but I would like to know. Anybody know what argument is used to compile an app statically? > I run Gentoo and I have already tried the > USE="static" but no results.

Not that familiar with Gentoo, but again I would like to know how to compile apps statically with Gentoo as well if it is different. > Any help would be greatly appreciated.
