Description Björn 2008-12-08 01:16:38 UTC
syslog-ng tries to statically link glib-2.0 because it does not add the LD_END_STATIC variable to the linking command line. the patch solves this problem.

Reproducible: Always

i forgot to mention, that the best solution would be to remove the -Bstatic and -Bdynamic options at all and let the linker use what is available.
