Release hexwalk_1.0.0a_Linux_x64.zip binary is not static.

When I tried to run hexwalk it failed with an error: ./hexwalk: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.67: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I run file command: file ./hexwalk and result was ./hexwalk: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, BuildID[sha1]=d4d26228b5013dee21fa547b1d94cf5fa42b9b65, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, not stripped

It looks like only Qt library was statically linked into binary.

[gcarmix]

You are right, only the QT libraries are statically linked, system libraries are dynamically linked to avoid excessive file size, I tested the binary on Debian Linux and it worked seamlessy, what Linux distro did you use?

[malikcjm]

I'm using Arch Linux.

If it's like that by design, it means that this ticket can be closed.
