Todd Lipcon commented on IMPALA-7066:
-------------------------------------
The difficulty with libkudu_client specifically is that it has some symbols
which overlap names with symbols in Impala. With a shared object we are able to
make those symbols local so they don't conflict, but with a static library that
isn't an option. We'd need to do something more clever involving renaming the
conflicting symbols within the shared object.
> Provide option to build impalad with native-toolchain dependencies linked
> statically

> Key: IMPALA-7066
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-7066
> Project: IMPALA
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Infrastructure
> Reporter: Quanlong Huang
> Priority: Major
>
> Users can be stuck into issues in upgrading Impala if they just replace the
> impalad binary and jars but forget (or are unaware) to replace the dependent
> libraries like libkudu_client, libstdc++, libgcc etc.
> It'd be better if we have a build option to link them statically.
