Being an old curmudgeon, I have historically preferred static linking for some of the points raised (no external installation dependencies, I know the application is complete and will work, use of believed good library versions, custom library patches are possible, etc). The other response about n

Hi, I would like to test Martin Matuskas patch for ZFS v28 against stable. Can I patch against any stable (like stable of today) or does it necessarily need to be the stable-tree of the date specified in the patch-file? If the latter should be true, how do I obtain a stable tree of any given date

I build code using static linking for deployment across a set of machines. For me this has a lot of advantages - I know that the code will run, no matter what the state of the ports is on the machine, and if there is a need to upgrade a library then I do it once on the build machine, rebuild the ex
