No the LGPL has a clause for dealing with static linking [1]. It's more difficult to do (as the comment above us mentions).

Using static linking requires you to provide program object files which can be relinked (and re-uploaded I'd presume). This allows the user to modify the LGPL file, and then relink the original program to the updated version.
