Forcing people not to static link is just crude and inappropriate. Its all a bit "you will upgrade to vista or else" and hardly IMHO in keeping with the free software spirit. Far simpler, cleaner and more friendly will be to dump the static libraries into libfoo-devel-static packages which are not in the default install. That ensures people who need to can do static links and the default behaviour is that they are not there. The -static packages could even get dropped off the CD easily enough once the mechanisms for handling one srpm spitting out binary components for extras and core are sorted -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
