I'm trying to use Ruby interpeter as a library to link it against my project (metacall: https://github.com/metacall/distributable/blob/65493b393388f5d66d9b466e5d49f9128fee27ea/source/metacall.scm#L117 ). So I tried to download the Ruby package and libruby.so seems not to be present. Running ldd against ruby executable shows that it is linked with libruby-static.a. When I do ldd against Ruby on my Debian system, it is linked dynamically to libruby.so. I would like to have two versions, or at least the dynamic one, that's the common way Ruby should be built, and also the Guixy style. If this isn't handled, I will have to inherit the package and modify the compilation flags in order to compile Ruby with the dynamic library version. Thanks.
