# @BLURB: Smart .la file pruning
# @DESCRIPTION:
# A function to locate and remove unnecessary .la files.
#
# Discouraged. Whenever possible, please use much simpler:
# @CODE
# find "${D}" -name '*.la' -delete || die
# @CODE

# @FUNCTION: prune_libtool_files
# @USAGE: [--all|--modules]
# @DESCRIPTION:
# Locate unnecessary libtool files (.la) and libtool static archives
# (.a) and remove them from installation image.
#
# By default, .la files are removed whenever the static linkage can
# either be performed using pkg-config or doesn't introduce additional
# flags.
#
# If '--modules' argument is passed, .la files for modules (plugins) are
# removed as well. This is usually useful when the package installs
# plugins and the plugin loader does not use .la files.
#
# If '--all' argument is passed, all .la files are removed without
# performing any heuristic on them. You shouldn't ever use that,
# and instead report a bug in the algorithm instead.
#
# The .a files are only removed whenever corresponding .la files state
# that they should not be linked to, i.e. whenever these files
# correspond to plugins.
#
# Note: if your package installs both static libraries and .pc files
# which use variable substitution for -l flags, you need to add
# pkg-config to your DEPEND.
