Of course, that means fixing many broken pkg-config files. I don't know if we can do completely without them, as there are some (e.g. XFree86) libraries which are still available only in static format. > Both of these tools are designed primarily to solve problems that do not > affect stock Debian packages.

I really feel we should get rid of all these static libraries. Who uses static linking now that even our glibc doesn't support it correctly across versions? -- .''`.
