Yeah, I understand. Probably not a huge demand for statically-
compiled Abiword binaries. I was looking to create one for the
purpose of putting Abiword on a shared web host and using it as a
backend for document conversion using Docvert.
I think another problem was that I don't actually have static
versions of all the required libraries to link against, so there may
be no problem in Abiword at all. I will investigate further and let
you all know if I come up with anything.
Thanks,
Ben
