i don't know the EUPL, but https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#LGPLStaticVsDynamic states:
"(1) If you statically link against an LGPL'd library, you must also provide your application in an object (not necessarily source) format, so that a user has the opportunity to modify the library and relink the application."

what i interpret as:
as long as you provide at least the object code, if the user requests so, so that he can relink himself, you're fine.

i don't know if this meets your problem, and ianal ;)
