`ffmpeg-static` installation issue

Hey! I'm trying to make a discord bot using ffmpeg, and I'm trying to install ffmpeg-static but I'm having errors, does anyone have solution for this?
Solution:
We don't seem to have a ffmpeg-static package. Where did you get the idea that we do?...

There's no way to meaningfully diagnose this without the error message. Preferably in full.

oh. well that's wierd. Have you ever heard of such package?

Not in Termux. The main reason we don't have a staticly linked build for ffmpeg (or most packages) is because that would be a huge package. The ffmpeg package has over 40 dependencies.

Okay. I could see if i could use my code without using ffmpeg-static.

If you're just running ffmpeg commands under the hood it shouldn't matter if it's statically or dynamically linked.

Yep, seems like i never needed such package. Thank you. And code works. Thanks.
