Public bug reported:
There appears to be a packaging patch that makes libbenchmark a shared
library, but that patch doesn't also make libbenchmark_main a shared
library. Trying to link against libbenchmark_main.a to use it as it is
intended results in a link error:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/9/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/Scrt1.o:
in function `_start':
(.text+0x24): undefined reference to `main'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
A simple solution would be to extend the patch to make libbenchmark_main
a shared object library as well, or alternatively use the CMake argument
-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON to make both libraries shared.
