In case it is helpful, here is the script I used to build all static bro
(without any shared libraries)
```
cd bro
mkdir buildcaf
cd buildcaf
cmake -DCAF_NO_UNIT_TESTS=1 -DCAF_NO_EXAMPLES=1 -DCAF_BUILD_STATIC_ONLY=1
../aux/broker/3rdparty/caf/
make
make install || true
cd ..
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DDISABLE_PYTHON_BINDINGS=1 -DENABLE_STATIC_ONLY=1
-DCAF_ROOT_DIR=../buildcaf ..
make
make install
```
It needed also a small patch to bro, which comes afterwards
```
