This warning is to remind you that glibc is a lousy library when it comes to statically linking. You basically can't do it entirely. Even though you specified -static, glibc still needs some dynamic libraries for certain functions, and those can't be compile statically. You either heed the warning and ship your app with those dynamic libraries (if they're needed), or you can use another libc that's better suited to static linking, like uClibc. >>> Dan _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libssh2-devel
