Which is in each case annoying and at Gentoo we have quite often bug reports to sort \
out this library inlusion mess and send patches upstream. In case of Qt you're wrong. \
It allows to use system libraries. Let me state it again: Fromthe security point of \
view, senseless included libraries are a hazard. Its a lot more work, a lot more \
packages are to update and there's always the chance you miss a package leaving users \
with a vulnerable application. There're very very few reasons to link statically, \
e.g. on embedded systems or stuff you need at boot time, but there's nothing that \
justifies it for desktop applications.

I think comment #58 is the best option both for you, not getting duplicates of this \
bug report as well as us downstream.
