build: Link with libsframe and libzstd #249

Closed bmario closed 1 year ago

bmario commented 1 year ago

Newer binutils (>=2.40) want to be linked against libsframe and libzstd. To still support older binutils, we guess with this heuristic: If we find a libsframe, we require a suitable libzstd.

Building this under Arch Linux with the default options fails due to a missing static libzstd.

However, the build using lo2s_USE_STATIC_LIBS=OFF works flawlessly.

As already discussed, it is very unlikely that Arch Linux will start shipping a static libzstd due to this bug and their generally static unfriendly policy.

We talked about that and came to the conclusion that we want to change the default setting of lo2s_USE_STATIC_LIBS from MOSTLY to OFF. However, that should be a different PR.

I think this is good to go then.
