Public bug reported: In one of the latest releases, you removed the static libraries from libgtk-3-dev. (They were still there in 3.4.2 and are missing in 3.10.8-0ubuntu1.)
Please consider re-adding them. I have read in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdk-pixbuf/+bug/1101157 that you removed them on purpose, but I must object to the claim that static builds of gtk have so many issues that it is justified to remove the static libraries at all. I admittetly build my static version of gtk with `--disable-modules`, but with that build flag, I haven't experienced any issues with statically linked gtk applications so far. ** Affects: gtk+3.0 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1385622 Title: libgtk-3.a and libgdk-3.a missing in libgtk-3-dev Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: In one of the latest releases, you removed the static libraries from libgtk-3-dev.
