Description:
Please add --with-dynamic as a configure option to allow linking with dynamic .so libraries instead of static ones. This is important for inclusion of mysql-administrator in distributions like Debian since applications should be dynamically linked.

How to repeat:
it is a feature request, not a bug

What libraries are being linked statically? 
I think all libraries are being linked dynamically, unless you specifically modify
the makefiles by hand.

I'm closing this ticket since --with-dynamic is usually for generating dynamic versions of libraries and none of our tools have libraries that are supposed to be usable from external applications.
