Adding automatically shared libs and a wrapper to use added libs or system libs based on sonames? It could inded help some users, especially if it is also attractive to those (like me) who write themselves their Makefile and shell scripts (I would never ever use a GUI to develop, but I guess eclipse can do portability stuff on the command line). In any case I doubt it may be as simple as what we have with static libs, with statically linked executables created by adding -static to the link command line... -- Pat -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
