-framework Security flag was missing, when building subnet-evm this flag seems to be added automatically as build works.

We remove all dynamic library builds to make sure only static library is linked by the next build step.

Why do we need to rm here?

Sorry, I saw the description. Wouldn't it work even if we don't remove?

By default linker prefers dynamic libraries if they are available, now we specify tfhe lib with -ltfhe flag, which doesn't imply if it is static or dynamic, so if we remove dynamic libraries, linker is forced to link statically

It would work, but then on macbook it links dynamically, I tried -l:libtfhe.a flag but it doesn't work
