Hi,

at the moment we configure libtool with link_all_deplibs = yes.
This has the consequence that we link a program against each
dependencies of a shared library: SDL_image for instance, and each of
the libraries that depend on it, libjpeg, etc..
Haikuporter detects that and says we should declare the dependencies.
This can in the long term be a difficult to maintain correct
dependencies on applications using some "interface" libraries.

Question: is this something that should be changed? For Haiku itself?
For  Haikuports only?

Bye,
Jérôme
