Since I'm not using static libraries, I would not expect to need the "--with-lib" configure option.
The --disable-static flag only tells the build system not to build the static execline library. By default, executables are still built against the static version of skalibs. If you want to link executables against the dynamic version of skalibs, you need to add the --disable-allstatic option to configure. IOW: to make a dynamic install, you need both --disable-static and --disable-allstatic. -- Laurent
