I'll agree here. I work with the OpenOffice.org project and someone actually attempted to build it statically. The 150MB program grew to over 1GB in one case. I don't know what would happen with Wine. The real question here is why statically link this program? It is developed, built and testing on many different platforms and Linux/UNIX distributions. Most, if not all of these support dynamic linking. James McKenzie
