The C++ libraries included in the ardour CVS tree are all statically linked with the ardour binary. This was done to prevent many of the problems when dynamically linking C++ libraries compiled with different compiler flags. All of these libraries are likely included with your Linux distribution and *those* libraries are the ones to use with other apps. There is absolutely no reason to use these (static) libraries with any other app. Ardour's use of them does not affect other apps in any way, so don't worry about it. There has been much discussion on the reason Paul Davis did this, and although the ardour binaries may not be using shared C++ libs, the argument is generally settled. jlc ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Ardour-users mailing list Ardour-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ardour-users
