           Summary: Don't link libstdc++ statically
           Product: IcedTea
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: IcedTea
        AssignedTo: unassigned at icedtea.classpath.org
        ReportedBy: bero at arklinux.org


Currently libstdc++ is linked into pretty much every icedtea component
statically.
This makes sense for binary-only builds where there's a libstdc++.so.5 vs.
libstdc++.so.6 issue, but for distribution packages that know which libstdc++
will be used -- for this context it just wastes space and prevents users from
benefitting of libstdc++ bugfix updates.
