This comes from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Exclusion_of_Static_Libraries > Packages including libraries should exclude static libs as far as possible (eg by configuring with --disable-static). Static libraries should only be included in exceptional circumstances. Applications linking against libraries should as far as possible link against shared libraries not static versions. < True static almost doesn't exist in Linux anymore. Try to run ldd <executable> and you'll see how many dependences it has so for me having shared as default is normal. To avoid it use -static. best regards, Lorenzo _______________________________________________ Harbour mailing list Harbour@harbour-project.org http://lists.harbour-project.org/mailman/listinfo/harbour
