ISO image for Carbs</p> + +<h2>Statically linking the base</h2> + +<p>For the past couple of weeks I have been trying to simplify the base and +statically link the core (mostly binaries rather than libraries). I usually see +some people extremely opposed to static linking as I also see the opposite on +people.</p> + +<p>I believe that binaries on the core should always be linked statically. This +ensures that an SONAME bump to <code>libObscure.so</code> will not break the core +functionality of your system, forcing you to use external resources to recover +from such an issue. As long as you can compile, use core utilities, edit text, +and access the web, you can solve any given issue on your system.</p> + +<p>However, I don&rsquo;t think that removing shared libraries is sensible either. Not +every piece of software out there is good quality enough to be statically +linked.</p> + +<h2>Major changes on the core repository</h2> + +<p>There have been drastic changes to the core repository and the base rootfs this +month (with more on the way).
