Re: [gedit-list] Compile gedit with static libraries

["Andrea Gandolfi" <andgandolfi gmail com>]

Ok, so I have to compile all the libraries in static mode (.a) and then use --enable-static to compile gedit.
Is it correct?

Thank you for the answer.

Okay, providing -static should do the trick, now that I look at it. Or
does --enable-static add this to LDFLAGS?
