Patch to add libfdt-static package

The current DTC source package only provides the dynamic library of libfdt. The attached patch adds a package that provides libfdt.a as well.

Rational is that some tools require linking to the static library to keep the number of dependencies down.

The current build of the DTC package does already create libfdt.a. However, it is deleted just before packaging. The attached patch removes that deletion and adds a definition for the libfdt-static package.

Please consider for inclusion.

Patch looks good to me.  The only thing I would change is referencing this bug in the changelog.

Comment 2 Bas Mevissen 2018-05-24 11:51:43 UTC
Thanks for the review. As I added the patch while creating the bug report, I had a chicken and egg problem with referencing to the bug ;-)
