build static linked gedit with meson?
I want to compile a statically linked
version of gedit using the upstream meson based package.
I've got the sources matching my current
Debian 11 system and can do a build no problem.
What I want to do is statically link the
gedit executable. I see the non-static executable is very small
and there is a large library file libgedit, and using ldd I see
the executable wants to call many system libs.
Target is a single statically linked
executable which incorporates libgedit as well as parts of all the
system libraries they call.
Meson doesn't obviously seem to support
static linked executables.
