This option is only there because it's part of the autotools boilerplate. It has been disabled
by the lttng-ust project on purpose.
See README.md:
"LTTng-UST needs to be a shared library, _even if_ the tracepoint probe provider is statically
linked into the application."
Static linking of liblttng-ust has never been a supported use-case, and would require a significant
design/implementation effort.
Thanks,
Mathieu
