Add option for standalone static binaries

rcarmo opened this issue · 2 comments

I realize this might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I would like to see a configure option to build standalone static binaries (I'm currently trying to do this manually for shrpx, but it would be nice if it were possible to have for all binaries...)

Adding -all-static to LDFLAGS is the first step for statically linked binary, but I saw some problem with getaddrinfo and dlopen. The linker issues warning about them when linking, saying that same version of libc is required on runtime.

I see what you mean. Like you say, it's a first step, and might realistically be the simplest way to minimize runtime dependencies. I'm a bit spoiled by all the standalone Go binaries, and would like to use shrpx and the other binaries without worrying about dependencies.
