A static build is fairly trivial. I didn't have the details in response to http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-xfree/2002-10/msg00059.html so here they are now (you can safely add -O2 btw)... glib (1.2.10) --disable-shared --enable-threads=no CFLAGS+=-DDEFS_H gtk+ (1.2.10) --disable-shared gdk-pixbuf (0.10.1) --disable-shared --disable-modules --disable-mmx imlib (1.9.10) --disable-shared --disable-modules ...none of the above require the presence of Cygipc. >3.

I know that eveybody's time is valuable (I promised a patch to the >WxWindows group over a month ago I haven't gotten to yet :-( ), but getting >gpsim is a fairly high priority for me. ... seems gtk+extra-0.99.17 just wants --disable-shared as well. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
