Interestingly enough, this causes libsyck to be linked statically in a few packages:

dev-perl/YAML-Parser-Syck (/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux/auto/YAML/Parser/Syck/Syck.so)
dev-perl/YAML-Syck (/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux/auto/YAML/Syck/Syck.so)
dev-php5/pecl-syck (/usr/lib/php5/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/syck.so)
dev-lang/ruby (/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux/syck.so)
dev-libs/syck (/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/syck.so)
media-sound/squeezecenter (/usr/lib/squeezecenter/CPAN/arch/5.8.8/i686-linux/auto/YAML/Syck/Syck.so)

Comment 1 Uwe L. Korn 2012-03-11 14:21:05 UTC

Upstream syck now includes an option to build a shared library.

It probably makes no sense to fix this for syck-0.55, since syck-0.70 is around.
