Do a "file /bin/rm" for example. They are linked static, so they don't depend on any libs, but are bigger because of that. Just try it for yourself. A simple hello world program: ~$ gcc -o hello hello.c ~$ ls -lh hello -rwxr-xr-x 1 stoerte stoerte 4.4K Aug 28 20:15 hello* ~$ gcc -static -o hello hello.c ~$ ls -lh hello -rwxr-xr-x 1 stoerte stoerte 70K Aug 28 20:16 hello* cheers, Frank _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
