Hello,

thank you for packaging uriparser!

liburiparser-dev does not ship a liburiparser.a:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/amd64/liburiparser-dev/filelist

I could not find out if it is accidental or intentional.

Not having a .a makes it impossible to create statically linked
executables that use urparser, which would be helpful for some deploy
workflows. Would it be possible to have it?

Thank you,

Enrico
