From 2d60183e7142f2fbe023f0ce4562d32833cde137 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Samuel Holland Date: Fri, 8 Sep 2017 00:05:18 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Require static native libraries when linking static executables On ELF targets like Linux, gcc/ld will create a dynamically-linked executable without warning, even when passed `-static`, when asked to link to a `.so`. Avoid this confusing and unintended behavior by always using the static version of libraries when trying to link static executables.
