Hmm, how about archive and/or object files for static linking ? An approach that I saw in mormot ( I don't know if it is the same in OPK I didn't check the package there ... )

Not good, you need to provide this for all possible architectures, and that's 
not
possible for most people.

And I would say this is a big flaw in the way mormot operates.

Distributing binaries is simply a big no-no. You must rely on the package
manager of your system for that.
