The static binary is required because this is a backup program; the static
binary is copied to the backup disks for ease of restoration on a system that
can't/doesn't have dar otherwise installed (also why it's a separate package,
since this is an optional feature encouraged by upstream).  I don't know what's
up with the dynamic linking, but it sounds like something that should be fixed
(I'll ask upstream assuming the previous "why" is a worthy answer).

I don't know what .a files are, so they're included.
