I am *NOT* buying that doing static linking is a progress. We're back 30 years in the past, before the .so format. It is amazing that some of us think it's better. It simply isn't. It's a huge regression, for package maintainers, system admins, production/ops, and our final users. The only group of people who like it are developers, because they just don't need to care about shared library API/ABI incompatibilities and regressions anymore.
