            Bug ID: 201287
           Summary: xfsprogs 4.17 and later can't be built as static
                    binaries anymore
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: n/a
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: XFS
          Assignee: filesystem_xfs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
          Reporter: dilfridge@xxxxxxxxxx
        Regression: No

In Gentoo we offer the possibility to build xfsprogs fully static, e.g. for
initramdisks.

This still worked fine with 4.14. 

With 4.17 and 4.18 we however get:

../libfrog/.libs/libfrog.a(convert.o): In function `gid_from_string':
convert.c:(.text+0x984): warning: Using 'getgrnam' in statically linked
applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version
used for linking

and final linking fails.
