Speaking of linking statically, why is there no simple method to get the option needed to statically link an application against glib/gdk/gtkmichael <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes:All needed packages rebuilded with "--enable-static" option too.
--enable-static just means "build static libraries"
To use a fully statically linked GTK 2 you also need to be sure there
aren't any dlopen() modules. The normal ones are in Pango, gdk-pixbuf,
and GTK input methods.
The configure options are something like --with-included-modules,
I don't remember exactly. It may even be in the docs in the "compiling
GTK" section, hopefully.
(and so on) libraries ?
pkg-config (glib-config, gtk-config, in the old pre-2.0 days) has no option to return such options.
I already posted on this subject on 17th february 2002 with a patch for glib-config 1.2 (this had already been posted back in 1998).
A "pkg-config --static-libs glib-2.0" would be a definite improvement (and a cheap one at that).
If this list is not the right one to make such a request, be so kind as to show me the right path ;o)
Have a nice day.
