Description Constantine 2014-09-15 20:56:58 UTC 
libinput 0.5.0 links static library, 0.6.0 doesn't, --enable-static doesn't do anything now?
Comment 1 Constantine 2014-09-15 21:00:41 UTC 
Also, --disable-shared in 0.6.0 gives configure error, while libinput 0.5.0 can disable shared library without any problems.
Comment 2 Constantine 2014-09-15 21:06:38 UTC 
I see "Disable static libraries" by Peter Hutterer in 0.6.0 commit shortlog, what was the reason behind this decision?
Comment 3 Constantine 2014-09-15 21:14:43 UTC 
Ok, found it: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/wayland/libinput/commit/?id=f5e014f8b0c1d8a4d7bc94fd18aeb415f103fd75

Any hope for static linking in future?
Comment 4 Peter Hutterer 2014-10-28 01:34:31 UTC 
Why do you need static linking?
