I don't have libgs.a

Did you expect it for a particular reason? I don't know if this is intentional or not, but I'm wondering how you noticed, or if you've just noticed by chance.
Comment 2 Agostino Sarubbo gentoo-dev 2023-03-15 07:45:12 UTC
I noticed it while trying to build a static gs.

USE=static-libs isn't supposed to give you a static /usr/bin/gs anyway though?

no, static-libs only build and install .a files. What are you talking about should be USE="static" that adds -static ldflag

I'm talking about a static /usr/bin/gs because...

of this.

What exactly were you trying to do?
