You are not wrong there.. Reinstalling the static libs causes a relink in /bin and /sbin (among others). I dont mind a relink anywhere as much as a recompile-the-entire-system because I forgot to reapply the patches after sup kindly "repaired" them for me. Damn. What a problem! :-) Having recently come from a binary-only system, the last thing I should be griping about is recompiling the source... :-) :-) Seriously though.. I suspect that a "cmp -s" will fail for many static libs, merely because of the "ranlib" or "ranlib -t" after the install.. even though they are otherwise identical.
