Hi, thanks, I work alone, and have no people I know to consult with. Does the PREFERRED_VERSION influence static linking only ? So that the package version in the DEPENDS list is decided according to that variable ? If so, why can't it be a recipe specific ? If I want package A to statically link with lua5.3 and package B to be statically linked with lua5.2 . How can I do that ?
