It was a decade ago, so my memory is a little fuzzy on this.. but that's one of the commits I shared above. Trying to force it to use 1.2. But there was a Gentoo user who ran into issues with that and i had to revert it. But you do see the problem right? How distros end up creating this weird situation of certain libraries not being available in certain places. They won't even let you statically link your program to those libraries to it into their repositories. It was easier to just give up.
