Anyway, if you find some situation when configure script doesn't detect
some missing library, let me know (with proper info mentioned above).
Above is a pastebin of a build problem i encountered when trying to build statically.
The development package of libgrypt does not ship with libgcrypt.a in the distribution i am using and this necessitated me to build another version of libgrcypt to have a static library and i installed it in "/home/local" because thats where i install personal packages.
As you can see from the link,the build see my personal libraries( in /home/local) as well as those in "/usr".I think it shouldnt see those in /usr.It should see and use one or the other and not both.
The first time around,the build fail at line number 242,that happened because i removed "/usr/lib/libgcrypt.a".
Adding the library back and the build failed again at line 281.
I solved the problem by overwriting the gcrypt libraries in /usr/ with my local build but this is not good. I try not to overwrite packages managed by my distribution but it look like i did not have a choice here.
Also,in line 173,the check will fail if "libgpg-error.a" is missing.This may be important because a link btw gcrypt and gpg-error may not be obvious.
line 176 maybe a potential problem too.
