A little remark. For CMake controlled buildsystem (as you're coming here from latest dev- games/simgear), there's no automatic way of building both static and shared libs (simgear allows to choose just one). This is why I removed static libs support that you proposed for dev- games/simgear (similar to ruby eclass abi handling - manually calling phases twice to build package 1st as shared, 2nd time as static). This is what I called "not worth the effort" in private discussion with you, not quite "I don't care for static libs" :) -- regards MM
