Description Denis Lisov 2011-12-15 21:36:39 UTC 
Currently the devmanual recommends to always install static libs

"The package should always (if possible) install both the dynamic and static libraries."

If I understand correctly, the policy has changed with the introduction of USE=static-libs

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 nm (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-12-16 02:33:41 UTC 
per the statement on the devmanual's front page:

"If you have any corrections, suggestions or improvements please file a bug at bugs.gentoo.org and assign it to qa@gentoo.org."

reassigning to the QA team for them to look at.
