what are all these kind of binaries ? i known only one kind

A statically-linked binary is a binary which contains all of the code
needed to run the program -- i.e., no dynamic link libraries --.DLLs
(for Windows), no .sos (for Unix/Linux) -- are required.

Dynamically linked binaries are smaller because they don't contain
code that is excpected to reside in the dynamic-link-libraries.

The statically linked binary has the advantage of not needing the
external libraries, and the disadvantage that the needed libraries
may not be present on the target machine.

sorry for my incompetence and that there's no real link with gtkada
feel free to ignore this msg if you find it annoying
