Hi,

Just so you know, Debian is removing all .la files where possible or
emptying dependency_libs where not possible:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/08/msg00783.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2009/08/threads.html#00217
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/08/thrd2.html#00783

Would it be possible to implement dependency_libs_shared or similar in
libtool? More information about this idea is here:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2009/08/msg00218.html

This would allow static linking to continue, but also remove many
unneeded dependencies.
