When you build statically, you need to add them by yourself. You can get the set of libraries you need by running pkg-config libxml-2.0 --libs --static of xml2-config --libs --static. It is a long term plan to remove the .la files, but in the meanwhile, I prefer to have this half broken setup. Mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
