then maybe its a flaw in the inherited methodology of how we build |
| 13 |
perl, since we build perl itself against the static vice the dynamic |
| 14 |
(instead, we could just build the static and let it sit to the side and |
| 15 |
build the the dynamic as part of the main perl build process). Wish I |
| 16 |
could get some examples of static apps building against the static |
| 17 |
libperl (since in my microcosm, everything builds against what perl |
| 18 |
tells it to with perl -V:libperl, which is libperl.a only because |
| 19 |
that's what the main perl ebuild builds right now). i won't claim to be |
| 20 |
sold on the concept, but i think i can work with it. Thanks mike :) And |
| 21 |
see - an almost -dev question on dev, who woulda thunk. |
