Summary: configure --disable-static prevents building of
freetype static library
Regression: ---
Story Points: ---
Classification: Fedora
OS: Unspecified
Reporter: n...@entidi.it

Hardware: Unspecified

Status: NEW
Component: mingw-freetype
Product: Fedora
Back in 2008 static libraries were stripped from the final package. The
relevant commit does not explain why:
http://hg.et.redhat.com/cgi-bin/hg-misc.cgi/fedora-mingw--devel/rev/1d89b5e78b43
Actually they are disabled at configure level with --disable-static. I'd like
to know the rationale behind this.
If that reason still stands a comment should be added to the spec (or I can
provide a git patch myself... I don't know if this is common practice here)
otherwise adding --enable-static can be considered. I didn't find anything in
favor or against it in the wild.
