We deliberately don't ship static libraries see in the spec: rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/%{_libdir}/*.{la,a} see: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-2302ec1e1f44202c9cc4bcce24cb711266557ad7 Specifically what other Core/Extras components require to build against sqlite statically? > Specifically what other Core/Extras components require to build > against sqlite statically? I needed it to build the unstable branch of Audacity. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/community/developers#cvs I have no idea why it links against the static lib (possibly to simplify building under Windows?), and it seems that sqlite is only required to build an intermediate testing tool, not for Audacity itself. The comments I found on the Audacity mailing list, rather than tracking down the source of the build failure, simply disabled the component that depended on the tool. I wanted to "fix" the problem. But I can understand the policy (sorry I didn't think to check that) and it seems like the right thing is to fix it on the project end, rather than requiring the .a. I will pass this along to the Audacity devs, anticipating that this issue will be closed. OK - if it helps you can rebuild tomorrows rawhide sqlite src.rpm with --with static to enable including of the static library which will help if you need an interim measure. I'm going to close it for now, please feel free to add additional comments as need be. Why not ? :p I tried to build locally a gis (http://www.giis.co.in/download.html) to perform some data recovery on a broken host. I only miss sqlite3-static :( |
