So, out of curiosity, how big is the threat since I am under the impression that almost 100% if not 100% of Arch binaries uses libc.so
People are free to build static libraries on Arch and use them. There are probably not many who do that, but that does not mean we should not care for them. Some Arch packages even provide static libraries for convenience, such as gcc and glibc. And unfortunately a few higher-level packages also provide static libraries because their maintainers did not notice the waste of space... -- Gaetan
