Hi,

it would be nice if the find_requires script would parse the
dependancies of static libraries, but how to do this? It's easy to
find out the dependant libs of shared libraries, but AFAIK shared
libraries only contain information about which symbols are unresolved,
but no information on where to get that symbols. Has anyone thought
about using the libtool .la files to get the dependant libs? Or maybe
it would be possible to use the dependany information from the shared
libraries for static libs, that means if libfoo.so depends on
libbar.so, does libfoo.a depends on libbar.a?
