[Digikam-devel] [Bug 147119] New: Can't link against static libjasper, configure reports jasper is missing

[Arnd Baecker]

What do you suggest?
Should the warning be changed to
"WARNING: digiKam requires libjasper >= 1.7.0 (shared library version,
--enable-dynamic during configure of libjasper)"

Or should digiKam also accept a static library?
(Not sure if this would be a good option, personally I think
that libjasper should generate a shared library version
per default ...)

Note that this is also mentioned under:

which it is linked from

Best, Arnd
