Statically linking gtk+ is uncommon and discouraged by gtk+ developers
(see "Extra Configuration Options" in [1]). Also, I don't think we
should increase the package size for such an uncommon a use case.

Please compile gtk+ yourself if you want to link your application to it
statically.

Title:
  libgtk-3.a and libgdk-3.a missing in libgtk-3-dev

Status in The Linux Mint Distribution:
  New
Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The static libraries are missing in libgtk-3-dev 3.10.8~6+qiana.

  Upstream (Ubuntu) also has this issue, but since this is a specialized
  qiana build, I felt I should also report this here.
