--- Comment #1 from Hans-Peter Nilsson <hp at sourceware dot org> --- I just stumbled upon this wart (can't straightforwardly create a static archive from he contents of other static archives and objects) in local scripts - or rather, how it was worked around: creating a temporary thin archive of any mix of static archives and objects and then do as in the description, but just addlib the single thin archive. The temporary thin archive can even use the same name as the final archive because of the way the MRI commands work. Now, that was unsightly to me so I was looking for a more digestible solution. So far, I've found none, just this suggestion, which I second with one amendment: allow any mix of objects and archives as parameters for the "new" L option, not just libraries. Let's also have a long option name, perhaps --addlib? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
