OpenCV static linking error

I want to use OpenCV as a static library. After compiling the library as a static library now i'm testing with some examples to see all the dependencies.

The dependencies added to compile are -staticpkg-config --libs opencv-lpthread -ljpeg -ltiff -lz -ljasper -lpng12

But obtain the following Error message:

g++ -c -g -Wall -O2 `pkg-config --cflags opencv` formas.cpp 
g++ -g -Wall -O2 `pkg-config --cflags opencv` formas.o -o paint -static `pkg-config --libs opencv` -lpthread -ljpeg -ltiff -lz -ljasper -lpng12

I made something wrong or there an error in OpenCV library.

OpenCV version: 2.3.1 (latest version) formas --> example which create an image an draw some figures and save into a file. So simple.

Thanks in advance.

It seems you have compiled OpenCV with libpng 1.4 or newer but trying to link with libpng 1.2

What cmake command have you used to configure OpenCV?

Update:

You need to add -lrt to the list of libraries you link for the clock_gettime function.
