Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-02-10 03:10:28 UTC 
# scanelf -n /usr/bin/alsaplayer 
 TYPE   NEEDED FILE 
ET_EXEC libpthread.so.0,libdl.so.2,libstdc++.so.6,libm.so.6,libgcc_s.so.1,libc.so.6 /usr/bin/alsaplayer 

Since it's also exporting the symbols it would be nice if it used the shared object.
Comment 1 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-07-22 13:34:00 UTC 
yep, what's the point in building shared library if it's not used even by the application itself?
Comment 2 Samuli Suominen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2009-07-22 14:29:54 UTC 
actually where do you see it linking statically to libalsaplayer.{a,so}? it's one .c and one .h file for "external control of alsaplayer"...

i believe this bug report is false
