[parted-devel] Duplicate symbols when statically linking to libparted and libparted-fs-resize

[Urs]

Hello list,

I am currently trying to statically link fatresize, which depends on 
libparted and libparted-fs-resize. After figuring out a few problems in 
fatresize itself I'm still stuck with the following duplicate symbol errors:

 > armv7l-unknown-linux-musleabihf-gcc  -g -O2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=no 
-o fatresize fatresize-fatresize.o -lparted-fs-resize

All the symbols seem to be defined in both libparted.a and 
libparted-fs-resize.a (I checked with nm).

When checking for example the symbol fat_alloc, it seems that it is 
indeed twice in the source code, once in libparted/fs/fat/fat.c and once 
in libparted/fs/r/fat/fat.c.

Any ideas how I could resolve this problem? fatresize really needs to 
link to both of these libraries.
