Description Klaus-J. Wolf 2003-01-12 00:41:10 UTC
Since a restore(8) of an appropriate version is nearly never available on any
rescue disk whatsoever, it would be a nice gesture to make it be linked
statically. Then one could simply copy it somewhere and use it when necessary...

what package provides this ? 
we should just add support for the static USE flag to said package 
Comment 2 Klaus-J. Wolf 2003-01-12 11:49:57 UTC
app-arch/dump
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2003-01-15 12:26:50 UTC
root@rux0r dump # env USE=static emerge dump 
<portage emerges dump> 
root@rux0r dump # ldd `which restore`
