It's really a shame since it would benefit some kinds of projects that are performance bound You are right, as can be seen by the replies to bug #407722 [1]. So we should deal with this situation and link against libgit statically. What do I miss? IMHO, that would be an unwise path. The GIT developers are committed to being able to change the interface. Seems like the design of cgit needs to change in order to move forward. I thought the replies from the Git developers to [1] (especially [2]) meant that it is ok to link it statically. What harm would it do if we link it statically. Would not that only affect cgit? Thanks, Paul PS: Could you please just send plain text messages? Evolution has some problems with quoting GMail HTML messages and it saves some bandwidth. ;-) [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=407722 [2] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=407722#84 signature.asc Description: Dies ist ein digital signierter Nachrichtenteil
