I noticed a serious mistake in my previous patch. -lssl and -lcrypto were beeing added to $LIBS and by that they were added as linker flags during compilation. This overruled the --as-needed flag and causes ssl to be directly linked to pacman.

I'm actually going to revert most of this link stuff as you are still not doing it right, and I want to make our library linking process a bit saner.

This is meant to be fallback libraries, not additional dependencies of the original library.
http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/autoconf/Libraries.html — Macro: AC_CHECK_LIB (library, function, [action-if-found], [action-if-not-found], [other-libraries]) If linking with library results in unresolved symbols that would be resolved by linking with additional libraries, give those libraries as the other-libraries argument, separated by spaces: e.g., -lXt -lX11. Otherwise, this macro may fail to detect that library is present, because linking the test program can fail with unresolved symbols. The other-libraries argument should be limited to cases where it is desirable to test for one library in the presence of another that is not already in LIBS. I don't know how to find how libfetch was built though. Why isn't the linker able to resolve this automatically ? Otherwise would that be pkg-config job ? I thought this whole mess was only needed for a static build, not dynamic one. That's why I bothered to add pkg-config support to libarchive : $ pkg-config --libs --static libarchive -larchive -lacl -lattr -lcrypto -lexpat -llzma -lbz2 -lz $ readelf -d /usr/lib/libarchive.so 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libacl.so.1] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libattr.so.1] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libcrypto.so.1.0.0] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libexpat.so.1] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [liblzma.so.0] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libbz2.so.1.0] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libz.so.1] 0x0000000000000001 (NEEDED) Shared library: [libc.so.6]
