That's what file and ldd report on gsi compiled on Ubuntu Linux (no static/dynamic related options supplied to configure): file gsi gsi: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped ldd gsi linux-gate.so.1 => (0xb7f9e000) libutil.so.1 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libutil.so.1 (0xb7f88000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libdl.so.2 (0xb7f84000) libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libm.so.6 (0xb7f5e000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xb7e0f000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7f9f000) The problem is that such an executable may be incompatible with some another Linux - if it has some older version of libc, for example. I've tried explicit --disable-shared just in case, but it does not make gsi static... Best regards, Kirill. --- On Fri, 5/15/09, Bradley Lucier <lucier@math.purdue.edu> wrote:
