[Freeipmi-users] static binaries?

[Julian Elischer]

to follow up on the previous,
it would seem possible to make static binaries
(that could be moved between machines without requiring moving 300 libraries)
but after manually making a libfreeipmi.a
(any chance it could be made automatically?), the link fails with:

+ cc -Wall -I./../../libfreeipmi/src -DFREEIPMI_BUILD -D_GNU_SOURCE 
-DPATH_CFG="/usr/local/etc" -DDATADIR="/usr/local/share" -I/usr/local/include -O

where `gh_standard_handler()'
seems to be the "cat ate the fish" handler that looks like it is
supposed to over-ride a standard one..
