The site uses both 64bit and 32bit hosts. On a 32bit vm, I compiled the 32bit version of git fine with -static, sent the binaries over, and it works perfectly. On a 64bit vm, I just cannot get a 64 bit version of git compiling with -static... or more precisely - I can but can't whatever I have tried get a remote-http and remote-https to turn up in libexec. Even when I hack the configure to force NO_CURL= and NO_OPENSSL= - and add every extra library I seem to need (-lcrypto, -lssl -lkrb5 -ldl) it refuses to compile - giving me a bunch of missing krb5_* If I compile without static, it works - but the shared libraries aren't found when it's run from the web host. If I try running the 32bit version on the 64bit host, it doesn't find some library - and if I try the 64bit version that I can properly get compiling statically, I get an error saying no remote found for https. Please help - it's driving me insane... can anyone tell me how to compile a 64 bit static version of git under centos 5.6? Thanks, Darren ``` ## W.
