I've encountered following problems when trying to do a Release build with GCC:

Quote:

Linking...
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.2/../../../../i686-pc-lin ux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lgtk-x11-2.0
collect2: running ld finished with error code 1

There were errors. (2:56.77)

It links neither in BLITZ nor in non-BLITZ mode. But when I switched Link mode to "Use shared libs", it linked properly. So it looks like a bug in the U++ make process which passes a wrong linker option (-lgtk-x11-2.0) or breaks the ld syntax when performing all-static linking.

If I remind, for some reason in linux you can use only shared libs mode. Only in windows you can switch to all static.
