[H-GEN] statically compiling program

[Anthony Irwin]

Hi Everyone,

There are a couple of programs that I use that use
older libraries and special non-common options turned
on in those libraries and I have seen an article that
suggests compiling the libraries and program in your
home directory using –prefix=/home/user/program and
–library-path-parameter-for-program=/path/to/custom/library
when compiling.

I was wondering if there is an easy was to statically
compile the program to include the special libraries
that I have compiled so I can turn it into a package
and use it on pretty much any system i use with no
stuffing around.

Am I heading down the right track with this or is
there a better way to handle this situation?

Kind Regards,
Anthony Irwin
