Creating .la files from existing libraries

[James Bigler]

Hello,

Is there a way to create a .la file for libraries which were created 
without libtool?  I know I can hack a file together piece by piece, but 
I was wondering if there was a mode in libtool that would generate it 
for me.

For example, I have installed the NVidia video drivers on my Mandrake 10 
system.  There are many libraries which came in the distribution which 
have .la files pointing to libGL.la.

Rather then editing all the existing .la files to point to libGL.so, I 
would like to create a libGL.la that points to libGL.so.

Thanks,
James
