Is --enable-static supposed to have this semantic ? If not, then we
should fix the package. If yes, then we can fix those packages manually
by adding --disable-static to <pkg>_CONF_OPT, no ?
Or maybe this isn't worth the trouble after all, and we could just use
--disable-static by default. I'm not personally using static linking,
so adding the production of .a files was just done because it appeared
to be cost-free and could have been useful to some users. So I wouldn't
complain if we decide to revert back to --disable-static for target
packages.
Regards,
Thomas
