First I installed static versions of these packages:      # rpm -qa | grep static   ncurses-static-5.9-13.20130511.el7.x86_64   glibc-static-2.17-105.el7.x86_64   zlib-static-1.2.7-15.el7.x86_64   #    Then I added your lines to LDFLAGS.extra in the top-level build directory:      # cat LDFLAGS.extra   -static -static-libgcc   # And for the embedded gdb, configured it with --enable-static=yes:   # git diff   diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile   index d5d9497..29cf134 100644   --- a/Makefile   +++ b/Makefile   @@ -232,7 +232,7 @@ gdb_merge: force           @echo "../../${PROGRAM} ../../${PROGRAM}lib.a" > ${GDB}/gdb/mergeobj           @rm -f ${PROGRAM}           @if [ ! -f ${GDB}/config.status ]; then \   -         (cd ${GDB}; ./configure ${GDB_CONF_FLAGS} --with- separate-debug-dir=/usr/lib/debug \   +         (cd ${GDB}; ./configure ${GDB_CONF_FLAGS} --prefix=<> -- enable-static=yes --with-separate-debug-dir=/usr/lib/debug \               --with-bugurl="" --with-expat=no --with-python=no -- disable-sim; \             make --no-print-directory CRASH_TARGET=${TARGET}; echo ${TARGET} > crash.target) \           else make --no-print-directory rebuild; fi   #     And then did a "make". I also see the warnings, but also hundreds of unresolved references  associated with libncurses.a.  So I don't know what else to suggest.

Maybe somebody else on this list may have attempted it? Dave -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
