Re: [Libguestfs] [hivex PATCH 7/8] build: link hivex statically into C programs compiled against build dir

This static-only linking allows the libguestfs daemon ("guestfsd") to launch in the appliance, without unresolved hivex symbols, when libguestfs is built against the hivex build dir. (Libguestfs's automatic *package* collection for the appliance, based on the shared library requirements of "guestfsd", cannot cover hivex when hivex is provided by a local build directory.) Linking hivex statically into *host-side* C programs that are compiled against the hivex build dir is only a small penalty.
