Re: Bug#1131503: RFP: hurrycurry -- cooperative mulitplayer cooking game

Hello,

> Godot is packaged for Debian!
I know. I was not referring to Godot (the engine), but video games *made 
with* Godot.

For Linux, Godot exports video games as dynamically linked binaries with 
a small bunch of very common system dependencies, whereas all other 
dependencies required by Godot (e.g.: libpng, libogg, zlib, libsquish, 
etc.) are apparently statically linked against the binary. Which might 
explain why binaries are typically so big.

For example, the ELF for "Hurry Curry!" [1] shows:

$ du -h client-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
74M     client-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

$ ldd ./client-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
         linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff12379000)
         librt.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so.1 (0x00007fee155bc000)
         libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 
(0x00007fee155b7000)
         libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007fee155b2000)
         libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007fee154c9000)
         libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007fee15200000)
         /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fee155ec000

I am unsure whether Godot allows to export a binary where *all* 
dependencies are dynamically linked, as in other C/C++ video games 
packaged by Debian (e.g.: flightgear, torcs, 0ad).

So, how is Debian solving that situation for video games made with Godot?

Best regards,

Xavi
