https://blogs.gentoo.org/ago/2020/07/04/gentoo-tinderbox/ Issue: sys-apps/kbd misses USE=static-libs and installs '.a' files. Discovered on: amd64 (internal ref: ci) The best solution is avoid to build the '.a' files by touching the configure. In case the buildsystem makes your life hard, a good compromise would be just remove the files. See also:https://projects.gentoo.org/qa/policy-guide/installed-files.html#pg0302 NOTE: If you want to change the summary, to avoid auto-filed duplicates, please at least keep the word 'static-libs'
I don't have any *.a files installed that belong to sys-apps/kbd. If you think this bug was wrongly closed, feel free to reopen it and provide some additional information like how to reporduce the issue.

Issues like this comes from an automatic check. It looks like with FEATURES="test" it installs more files: amd64 (CHROOT) ~ $ qlist -e =sys-apps/kbd-2.3.0 | grep lib64 /usr/lib64/libtswrap.a /usr/lib64/libtswrap.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib64/libtswrap.la /usr/lib64/libtswrap.so.1 /usr/lib64/libtswrap.so
