Comment(by marin.saric@…):

 With regards to Jeremy's question about static libraries.
 Definitely a good question and it depends on what aspect you are looking
 at.

 There are a ton of static libraries built by MacPorts already, so I think
 it would be consistent to provide them for all ports offering it until
 there is an explicit policy by MacPorts that says that MacPorts does not
 support static libraries.

 x264 particularly benefits from a static deployment as it eliminates the
 problem like this one if the client links against it statically.

 How about this:

 Can we have a separate discussion of whether static libraries in MacPorts
 are useful?
 I am posting my answer to your good question in macports-dev.
