Graal: Official docker image can't compile static native images

[pmlopes]

When using: https://hub.docker.com/r/oracle/graalvm-ce/

Compile a hello world example with:

native-image --static Hello

Will fail with missing static libs z, c, etc...

Looks the image only contains the dynamic link libs not the static ones installed.

Hi Paulo,

thanks a lot for your report.

You can install the static packages with the following procedure:

yum-config-manager --enable ol7_optional_latest
yum install glibc-static zlib-static

Does this work for you?

We need to do some more testing and try to include it in a future image version.

The new oracle/graalvm-ce:1.0.0-rc9 docker image does now include the glibc-static and zlib-static package.
