Reading policy about static libs[1] says "The static library
(libraryname.a) is usually in addition to the shared version",
which doesn't sound like a requirement. More importantly, what
real life use static kdepim libraries when there are no
static libs for the underlying libraries?
In other news, kdepim not getting compiled is getting a showstopper
on our "kde 3.3 for sarge, please" quest.
