I do not understand the explanation at all, since I do not see any scenario in which the static library makes things easier for the consumer of the library. I have added a commit comment saying so. And the fact that the library building code is handwritten is a WTF by itself. With any reasonable build system, changing a library from static to shared is at most a one-line change. But upstream's build system is not reasonable. > As an alternative, I can orphan the "ustl" package in rawhide — I haven't > checked yet, but suspect that it's not used by other packages nowadays. Well, if that is the case, considering that upstream themselves consider the library obsolete, I guess it is fine to orphan it and let it be retired eventually.
