There is already a "static" flag, and that's what it actually does |
| 7 |
for some packages (most gnome-related libs for instance). |

Side note: i'm not saying it's the perfect solution though, at |
| 10 |
least not until USE-deps get supported by portage... Imho, |
| 11 |
it's two different things to "statically compile an application" |
| 12 |
and to "also provide the static version of a library". If it was |
| 13 |
two separate flags, i would probably leave the first one off, but |
| 14 |
turn on the second, because i care less about the wasted space than |
| 15 |
about random compilation issues with packages who want libxml2.a or |
| 16 |
things like that. Sure with USE-deps it would be different since |
| 17 |
this packages could depend on "dev-libs/libxml2:+static" (or |
| 18 |
whatever syntax it will be). |
