Description

Currently when using the bundled feature the downloaded C code is only used in some parts of linking and the libraries still needs to be present in environment where any application, built on this crate, is used.

In some case it can be very useful to have everything linked statically and there for I think we should add feature for this.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the crate's bundled feature and how its downloaded C code and libraries are linked. Trace which libraries remain required in the consuming application's environment; done means a new option allows all required code to be linked statically so those libraries are no longer needed at runtime.
