Yep, exactly this. And quirks of glibc and friends make fully static compilation likely to produce odd failures, unfortunately.

- saagarjha 7y agoGlibc does not really support static linking.
- alexeldeib 7y agoKind of my point — so much software depends on it, it’s difficult to statically link more things.
- needs 7y agoMusl is a pretty good replacement, I have been using it for years without any troubles.
- alexeldeib 7y agoI like Musl, but it is a source of pain at times too: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/64924 https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/64924 https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/33554 https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/33554 Admittedly you could put that on the Kubernetes folks, but the same problem doesn't exist with glibc.
