No, static libraries are security flaw and waste of time. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
The old Makefile-based build system used to build all LLVM libraries as |
| 19 |
static, then link it all into one big .so which required special |
| 20 |
handling. These days we use CMake which supports building only one type |
| 21 |
of libraries. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Of course, some upstreams hack CMake to create duplicate library |
| 24 |
entries for this. But we're certainly not going to do that for |
| 25 |
the common Gentoo sake of 'choice' to shot yourself in the foot. |
