Bugzilla Bug 92557

I used to build bzip2 with USE=static. Since this morning, I get:

[07:48:40 alexander@server:~] $ ll /bin/bzip2
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 494048 13. Mai 18:27 /bin/bzip2

[07:51:52 alexander@server:/etc] $ /tmp/bzip2
bash: /tmp/bzip2: No such file or directory
[07:51:56 alexander@server:/etc] $

After building bzip2 with USE=-static, I can exec bzip2.

Why's that?

I just noticed another strange thing:

[07:48:45 alexander@server:~] $ file /bin/bzip2
/bin/bzip2: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.4.1, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

Why is "file" listing /bin/bzip2 as "dynamically linked (uses shared libs)", after doing "USE=static emerge bzip2"?

fixed in 1.0.3-r2
