Keeping stub .la doesn't make any sense; if there is no other method to pull all dependencies (like correct pkgconfig files chain), static library can be considered useless. > (we want configure/autotools to take care of that anyway). ? I don't see how autoconf/automake (without pkgconfig stuff) could take care of dependencies of already built library. -- Jakub Bogusz http://qboosh.pl/ _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
