Description Jon Nilsen 2002-05-30 14:00:34 UTC

If "static" statement is used inside the USE varible in /etc/make.conf before 
compiling from stage 1 to stage 2. 

This will also break an existing Gentoo system when doing an
emerge --update world --emptytree and similar. 

In stage1 -> 2 compile I get the following error:

gcc -march=i685 -pipe -static -o makedoc makedoc.o ../lib/libtxl.a -lncurses

/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: Cannot find lncurses
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

This is when the system compiles /var/tmp/portage/gcc-2.95.3-rc5

If your system is already up this "static" breaks it by making your system not
able to create executables.

Please update/correct the"Gentoo Guide to USE flags" in 
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/use-howto.html
