Summary0001635: Provide static headless server binary
Description

It would be really useful if a static headless server binary could be provided. This so that a machine can be used as an encode server without worrying about library dependencies.

I think the most important platforms are Linux amd64 and Linux i686.

Thanks!

Is there an advantage over this that the AppImage builds don't satisfy?

ping @mhm on the AppImage query...

Sorry for a far to late reply. My idea here was to use D-Cinema servers for encoding when they are not playing movies (e.g. at night). These tend to have really ancient distributions (based on debian). E.g. Dolby DSS200 and Doremi DCP2000. Maybe it is not feasable, but if everything is static in the binary it could be possible?

No longer a high priority for me though.

I think it's certainly feasible; the AppImage builds are supposed to solve more or less this exact problem but there is a limit to how far back they will go IIRC.
