hey i was having a problem with linking my dynamic libraries while runtime..the executable is giving a segmentation fault...is there any way to correct this or is there a utility to convert dynamic library to a static library..

regards

Static means something doesn't require shared libraries. Did you try ldconfig in runlevel 1? /sbin/init 1 Are you trying to write software, or are you a user?
