Yeah, you could do that if you wanted. Debian doesn't seem to ship it which suggests that there isn't a great deal of demand for such a thing, but it would be harmless enough. > > Those are probably special.

Right, but it isn't entirely obvious to me why one would (in general) want to install such a library. Do you know what the actual use-case for libstdc++_pic is? If this is for mklibs-style library reduction then it probably belongs in yet another subpackage if anywhere. p. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
