Okay, but that's no reason Sage needs to install static libs in
$SAGE_LOCAL/lib. It should only ever be necessary if one package
needs to statically lin
On Debian gp (from pari/gp) links statically to libpari, for
performance reasons.

There are a few places where people claim they want the static libraries
for performance reasons. I live perfectly well without static libraries
in sage-on-gentoo and I would think most ot
The stuff in
./local/share/gap/pkg/SmallGrp-1.3/
are not static libraries, to begin with.
Otherwise, indeed, why not systematically try to add "--disable-static" in
spkg-install files to everything that accepts it, and see how it flies
(IIRC there are few places that need static libs)

Hi,
Maybe a stupid question, but: does Sage really need to build all
these static libraries? Why?
456M./local/lib/libgiac.a
144M./local/lib/libec.a
120M./local/lib/libppl_c.a
107M./local/lib/libpari.a
69M ./local/lib/libppl.a
48M ./local/lib/libsymmetrica.a
31M ./local
It was suggested on http://trac.sagemath.org/14699 that we rehash the old
arguments why static libraries have no place in a modular software system.
So here we go:
* No easy way to tell which static library (much less its version) is
used by a binary
* Space (both disk and memory) bloat, cod
