I think the inclusion of -pie is what was throwing my initial setup
off. Another (much older) toolchain I also use, I have to remove
-pie in order to compile a completely static binary.<br>

<pre wrap="">I'm having trouble compiling this. I typically create a static

Typically I create static libraries on which tinc is dependent (lzo
zlib openssl ncurses readline) . In this release, tinc doesn't see
the static libraries, just the development .h files when running
./configure. So I compiled static and shared libraries, so it will
make it through the configure script. Then when I compile tinc I
run
make LIBS="-static -lcrypto -ldl -llzo2 -lz"
and this typcically will give me static binaries.

<pre wrap="">"-static" should be in $LDFLAGS, not in $LIBS. Also, if you manually set $LIBS,
you are overriding the set of libraries that the configure script found. It
could be that that is the problem in your case (linker error messages are not
always very clear as to what the real reason for the errors are). You can replace:
$MAKE LIBS="-static -lcrypto -ldl -llzo2 -lz"
make install DESTDIR=$BASE/tinc
With one line:
$MAKE install LDFLAGS=-static DESTDIR=$BASE/tinc

<pre wrap="">It could also be that some libraries, that are normally found by the dynamic
linker at runtime, are missing when compiling statically. For example,
libreadline and libncurses normally depend on libtinfo, so when compiling
statically you have to add -ltinfo to $LIBS.
