You don't need static variants.
I'm bootstrapping a ppc chroot on amd64 with binfmt-support and normal
qemu.
How does this work? The kernel needs to load qemu from inside the chroot
at this point, including all of the libraries, so these need to be
installed into the chroot -- hence my request to have a static build so
I only need to install (and keep track of) a single file whose name I
can also choose (as opposed to libraries' names) so I can avoid
conflicts with the actual chroot.
This is correct. Static linking is needed in some cases. There are certain
combinations of host and target where things like /lib/ld-linux.so.2
collide and thus you can't have both the host & target versions in the
chroot at the same time.
