I'd like that. Then I'd know if this is a bug or user error. ;)
With static linking (make perl) perl is still linking dynamically with
an external library, though. So I'd think it would be useful to set
the RPATH in the perl binary just like when building the module (.so
file).
This is used when running make perl:
$ cat blib/arch/auto/SWISH/API/extralibs.all
-L/usr/local/lib -lswish-e -lz
How is that path determined? I would expect with LIBS, but that would
also require a --rpath or LD_RUN_PATH at build.
BTW -- is there target to build an all static binary with "make perl"?
That is, if I wanted libswish-e to be linked in statically?
