Re: Linking completely statically

Linux is not friendly to static linking, and you would need to either package or match exact versions of things like the nss and locale libraries that are dynamically loaded at runtime and don't show up in ldd. This limitation comes from glibc and is documented in its manual.

That's bad. But, like you said, it *is* possible. The dar (disk archiver) program comes with a statically linked version "dar_static": % ldd dar_static Das Programm ist nicht dynamisch gelinkt ("The program isn't linked dynamically.") From your answer, I assume that this isn't supported by GHC. Cheers Volker

Hi!

I know of the command line argument "-static". But this only affects the Haskell libraries. I want to link some programs completely statically, no external libraries needed.

When just linking with "-static" I still have those dynamically linked things:

desktop ~/bin $ ldd sicherung linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007ffdab53f000) libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007f3633da0000) librt.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so.1 (0x00007f3633d95000) libutil.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libutil.so.1 (0x00007f3633d90000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f3633d8a000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f3633d67000) libgmp.so.10 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgmp.so.10 (0x00007f3633ce3000) libatomic.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libatomic.so.1 (0x00007f3633cd7000) libffi.so.7 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libffi.so.7 (0x00007f3633ccb000) libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f3633ad9000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f3633f0c000)

Is it possible to link the remaining libraries statically too?
