multichase on Centos 8 Compile Issue

muttichase is a google open source tool which can run latency, bandwidth and loader-latency tool,
it can support both x86 and ARM64 platforms.
but it will have compile error on CentOS 8

root cause is this package needs static lib support, but regular CentOS doesn’t have it.
