Hi,
A while ago someone said that if in a build directory I have a (not yet
installed) ../lib/libfoo.la, to link with this library I should *not* use
libtool ... -L../lib -lfoo
but rather mention the .la file explicitly:
libtool ... -L../lib ../lib/libfoo.la
or
libtool ... ../lib/libfoo.la
Now I see the same advice in the second-to-last paragraph of
http://wiki.finkproject.org/index.php/Fink:Porting_Notes
Is it true that references to non-yet-installed libool libraries should not be
made with -l? If so, it would be worth to document this in the libtool
documentation. I didn't find it there.

Automake document this in paragraph "Program and Library Variables"
xxx_LIBADD and xxx_LDADD
But if project don't use automake may be good libtool to detail too.
