RE: Big, fat statically-linked gnumeric executable

But, is it possible to set the plugins once and for all at compile time?  Or have I totaly lost the reason 
for plugins??

While it is feasible to generate a staticly linked version of
gnumeric you will need to support dynamic linking to use the
plugins.
 
The number of shared libs is a _good_ thing.  It means that we are
actually reusing code finally.  Yes it is a bit daunting if none of
the gnome libraries are installed, but it is not as bad as it seems.
Once the compilation process works for one of them the rest should
fall like dominos.
