Comment(by tobias.gasser):
> *NOTHING* should ever link against a static zlib IMO.
whenever possible, i add --disable-static to ./configure. i remove ALL
remaining static libraries where a dynamic one is built (the 2 exceptions
i mention below).
even libiberty (binutils) can be made dynamic:
cd /usr/lib
mkdir -p TMP
cd TMP
ar x ../libiberty.a
gcc -shared -o libiberty.so \
-Wl,-soname,libiberty-$D_VER *.o
strip -d -p libiberty.so
mv libiberty.so ..
cd ..
rm -r TMP
i just have 2 issues:
- i can't convince sysvinit to use a dynamic libcrypt
- and modutils works fine with '--with-zlib-dynamic' but fails if no
static libc is available.
those 2 static libs i move to a temp directory after building them, move
them back to /usr/lib while building sysvinit or modutils and then i
remove them.
