Yeah, I recognize I'm not in the majority, but I'm pretty convinced that static libraries are dangerous, so I've avoided them in my packages. I think only stuff that absolutely must be built static for some very special (usually Essential: yes) reason should be using them. I'll leave this bug for now. I can imagine situations where this might come up (some init implementation being written static and wanting libseccomp), so when that shows up, we can close this bug then. In the meantime, I'll keep resisting. :) > Thanks, also for finding a bug in qemu! :) Sure thing! :) -Kees -- Kees Cook @debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
