Dear reader, While building things again, I now start to wonder why LFS let almost every package installs a static library? Where are the static libraries used?
After all, the down side of static libraries is that once linked into a module/program, any upgrade is not incorporated. Potentially leaving modules/programs vulnerable to manipulation. It is listed that only a very few use some static libraries and others are not mentioned. I know, disk space is not an issue nowadays, but still it needs to be maintained and dependencies are not listed anyhow. Can someone shed some light on this issue?
