I met some issues when I wanted to build the peerconnection example with linking Webrtc as a static library.
My build environment and the target are both ubuntu 18.04, and I used the Github repo https://github.com/vsimon/webrtcbuilds to build the Webrtc as a static library.
Then there were many link errors about absl libray, after some investigations, I added some build args to eliminate the majority of them as below:
is_debug=false
is_component_build=false
is_clang=false
rtc_include_tests=false
rtc_use_h264=true
rtc_enable_protobuf=false
use_rtti=true
use_custom_libcxx=false
treat_warnings_as_errors=false
use_ozone=true
But it still has several link errors that I can't tackle:

I hope anyone can give me some hints to fix them, thanks very much!
