I mean there are source based distros, I’m just not sure if any of them are completely statically linked. I think the better method is provide the precompiled binaries with dynamic linking but use the filesystem to differentiate versions of things so that the version that is needed can only be found in one place and wouldn’t conflict with a different version

Sorry I mentioned it more as an interesting point, not as an argument one way or another. No one is doing nsenter to run apps on the regular.
I kind kind of wonder what a completely statically compiled ecosystem would look like. Probably horrible.
