Presumably you have previously figured out which static libs you needed to install on your build machine previously though ? As that command line fails to verify presence of any static libraries at all - configure doesn't stop and tell me to install any static libraries at all on my machine which has no static libs present - it just fails to build later > > It fails trying to link > LINK tests/qemu-iotests/socket_scm_helper: > > ...why are we trying to build a helper program in tests/ for > a simple 'make' (not 'make check') ?
