Hi Ludovic, > Out of curiosity, why does nbd-server want to link statically against > Glib?
nbd-server is supposed to run on a remote machine that does not necessarily use the same distribution, glibc version, etc as the client machine. A statically linked binary can be copied over to that machine, and it will work fine with a fairly high chance. A dynamically linked binary, on the other hand, most likely doesn't work at all. At least that was the experience I made while setting up nbd. The glib version on the remote server is way older than the one from Nix. Linking nbd statically solved those problems for me.
