Public bug reported:
More and more things are requiring linking against libsystemd. In
particular, because dbus is now linked against libsystemd, anything that
wants to make a dbus client call needs it. By not shipping a static
libsystemd.a, all such users are prevented from building statically.
This includes tools like the lxc-init container init, and stacker
container build tool, which both want to be re-execed inside a container
which may have completely different - or no - distro.
With the attached debdiff, libsystemd-dev ships a libsystem.a so tools
can be built statically.
The package has been built (for lunar) with this debdiff at ppa:serge-
hallyn/systemd.
** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
