• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Agostino Sarubbo 2011-08-08 12:29:42 UTC]

This package installs also static libs ".a" please provide do add relative
USE. TIA

/usr/lib/libopenjpeg.a
/usr/lib/libopenjpeg.so.2.1.3.0
/usr/lib/libopenjpeg.so.2
/usr/lib/libopenjpeg.so

The cmake build system from openjpeg-1.5.0 doesn't create static libraries at all. 

I'm bouncing back and forth between:

a) Close this bug because the intention was to get rid of the static archive
b) Patch the build system to have optional switch -DBUILD_STATIC for this
c) Leave the bug open and wait for someone to request b) before wasting time on it

Bah.

for me, the goal of this, is to not install not useful file(s), so, is good for me: use static-libs || rm $file.a
