+Subject: [PATCH 1/1] xfsprogs: replaces -static with -static-libtool-libs
+
+xfsprogs rely on the original behaviour of -static which was modified by [1].
+But since commit [2] the build of xfsprogs tools is broken because they try
+to link statically with the static libuuid library (util-linux), which is not
+build for shared only build.
+
+The use of -static-libtool-libs allows to fallback to the dynamic linking for
+libuuid only:
+
+LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 xfs_copy
+	linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xf7793000)
+	libuuid.so.1 => /lib/libuuid.so.1 (0x465e1000)
+	libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x46db1000)
+	librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 (0x46f21000)
+	libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x46bf1000)
+	/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x46bce000)
