If I instead reference the *.dylib file (as the rest of the libraries linked with the *.oxt library), the error disappears, but the resulting *.oxt is non-functional on other systems than my own:(

A working solution was to move all static libs that should be linked into a separate dir, and link them from that location. This seems to work for building libhfstospell.a and libvoikko.a, but ooovoikko still fails with unrecognised symbols.

Using the following command I can see there are still 367 undefined symbols in libvoikko.a:

$ nm -a alibs/libvoikko.a | grep ' U ' | sort -u | wc -l     367

Examples of missing symbols are:

                 U __ZN7hfst_ol13ZHfstOspeller10read_zhfstERKSs
                 U __ZN7hfst_ol13ZHfstOspeller11read_legacyERKSs
                 U __ZN7hfst_ol13ZHfstOspeller5spellERKSs
                 U __ZN7hfst_ol13ZHfstOspeller7suggestERKSs
                 U __ZN7hfst_ol13ZHfstOspellerC1Ev
                 U __ZN7hfst_ol13ZHfstOspellerD1Ev
                 U __ZN9libvoikko10hyphenator10HyphenatorD2Ev
                 U __ZN9libvoikko10hyphenator14HfstHyphenatorC1ERKSs

(U means Undefined)

Any help as to how to get the static build to work is really appreciated.
