Howdy all, Just thought that I would put out an update on where I am on getting the new zebra packages together. First though, I have to say that this is the most exciting project that I have ever worked on. The statement, "I stand on the shoulders of great men." has never been more true. My thanks to everyone.
Now then, the whole static library thing has been killing me. After consuming much documentation and reading the zebra makefiles (most of which is still very foreign to me) here is what I finally figure out. The primary makefile actually references individual makefiles for each protocol daemon and the different protocol daemons are created as their own separate programs, therefore, you have to go into each one individually to do the static linking. If I am understanding this correctly then that means statically linking any libs will make this package absolutely huge. Then I had a revelation. I should be able to compile the individual protocol as independent *.lrp's that way you can go in and just load the protocols that you need. NOTE: I have not tested this it is merely conjecture at this point. For now I am going to proceed forward with a basic proof of concept that will include zebrad, bgpd, ospfd, and ripd. When I have this working then I am going to put my efforts toward creating and testing the individual packages.
