Ok so now I want a static std c++ lib, static thirdparty libs, and dynamic glibc. Passing -static to libtool seemed to do nothing. So, I am now passing -Wl, -static to libtool. I now get the following strange error:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgcc_s
hmm ok
find /usr/ -name *libgcc_s* /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.3.2/libgcc_s.so /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.3/libgcc_s.so
Seems to be there.
I've seen it mentioned that this is a bug in g++. Is that true? I am at my wits end here. Any suggestions?
It is not a bug in g++. The GCC 3.X series introduced a shared libgcc_s.so. There is no longer a static libgcc.
You will not be able to achieve a full static link using GCC unless you configure/build GCC so that it doesn't use shared libraries.
