Sure we can - even if it's just a single .a file. Linker search path has nothing to do with an OS, libraries can be used without an OS, and no BSP is needed. > So we could ask the user to have the sources somewhere, but the issue > is that the ARM build is much more sensitive to libosmocore version > than the host one.
