@lanodan @helene Problem with dynamic linking is that every distro has different ideas on where libraries have to be, /lib, /usr/lib, /lib64, /usr/x86_64-linux-gnu/lib, /gnu/store/hudfsiuhfw4uhdfiushf4wf0h-openssl-1.4.3a/lib. Now you'll either have fun with RPATH, patchelf, vendoring the libraries (arguably worse than statically linking), or your official binary will support only one small family of distros.. or you could link statically.

In any case, if pleroma decides to go the static linking path, I just have the request of "pls don't force static linking on every person who wants to build it".
