Static libraries are useful to some, particularly those who need to build something to support several versions of several distributions. Not shipping them means those they are useful to have to use a different distro, or build the packages on their own. I understand that _packages_ in a distro specific repository _should_ avoid linking statically - but oh well. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
