Hello,
In regards of libtool bug #13920 and debian bug #702737 I kindly ask you
to update the documentation of libtool in aspect of link_all_deplibs,
with something like the text below. I consider this as essential, as it
would have saved me quite some (from my free) time investigating why the
linking on Debian works differently/not according to the documentation.
A proper documentation of link_all_deplibs on different systems, will
safe the time of other developers investigating the same issue.

Set to @samp{yes} or @samp{no}. Default is @samp{unknown}, which is
a synonym for @samp{yes}.
