I'm not a linking expert, but why should static symbols that you embedded in libfoo.so be visible to libbar.so? > So far I have "fixed" the issue by linking one of the libs of > libfoo.so (say libx.a) to libbar.so. But this smells of nasy > workaround. Why should it be? You're saying you really don't want those underlying static libs to know about each other. If you want symbols from "a" to be visible to everyone, you should be making it a dynamic liba.so.
