Hi,

I'm using `dlib` in a project and I found that the static library will be deleted in the `delete-static-library` phase in the package installation. Why? 

https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/tree/gnu/packages/machine-learning.scm#n814

Is there any problem to comment these lines for using the `dlib` as library? (line 814 - 817)

Regards,
Hamzeh

We normally try to delete the static library so the shared library is
available and overall the package takes less space. I see, however, that
dlib defaults to static and doesn't build both by default, leaving out
package without any library installed.

This should be fixed shortly, with a shared library now in the lib
directory.
