Comment 2 Marek Kašík 2016-08-22 12:58:43 UTC
Since we don't ship static libraries using the flag should show empty string.

Comment 3 Marek Kašík 2016-08-22 13:21:06 UTC
I've fixed this at Fedora rawhide, thank you for this report.

Comment 5 Jiri Prajzner 2017-04-05 12:10:21 UTC
Still reproducible - there's no output (except an empty line)
environment:
cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 7.4 Beta (Maipo)

freetype-2.4.11-15.el7.x86_64
freetype-devel-2.4.11-15.el7.x86_64
freetype-debuginfo.x86_64 0:2.4.11-15.el7
freetype-demos.x86_64 0:2.4.11-15.el7

> Still reproducible - there's no output (except an empty line)

That is correct and intentional. We don't ship the static library libfreetype.la.

Comment 7 Jiri Prajzner 2017-04-05 13:06:56 UTC
Ah, sorry. I overlooked the comment #2. Thanks.
