How can I get glibc as a static library?












1















I want to compile a program and statically link it to glibc, so it can run on other Linux distributions without the user having to do any special configuration.



I tried using CFLAGS="-static -static-libgcc", but it statically links against all other libraries required, except glibc. I tried searching the apt repositories for a static version of glibc, but I couldn't find any.



How can I get a static library version of glibc on Ubuntu 18.04?



More information:




  • The project is using autotools

  • I am using the default gcc preinstalled with Ubuntu

  • I set CFLAGS with export CFLAGS="-static -static-libgcc"

  • I am compiling the project with cd tsschecker && ./autogen.sh && make


  • Link to project(if you want to clone the project, make sure to use git clone --recurse-submodules)

    Are you invoking gcc directly, as both compiler an linker? or via make? How are you passing the CFLAGS variable?
