[CMake] Can't get static executable

[Eneko Nieto]

Hi,

I wanted to compile Gammu for getting a static executable but I didn't 
achieve. I asked in the Gammu mailing list but the actual maintainer answered 
he didn't know how to configure CMake for compiling statically. More info in 
the original mail.

Could anyone help me?

Thanks in advance

Eneko
