Hi all,

I'm updating one of my fink packages (openvrml016) and I've run into an issue 
with the linker. I'm not sure if I'm missing something totally obvious here, so 
please bear with me if these is trivial to solve.

Basically, the openvrml fink package links against a bunch of other fink 
packages, and some of these have static libs (.a) as well as dylibs. The build 
process appears to be pulling in the static libraries in preference to the 
dylibs. E.g. for freetype, it's linking to 
/sw/lib/freetype219/lib/libfreetype.a rather than 
/sw/lib/freetype219/lib/libfreetype.6.dylib.

Given that the build process for openvrml is based on autoconf, I can't see any 
obvious error here, nor do I recall any simple way to force the linker to 
prefer dylibs, as I thought it did that already!

One other point which is probably not relevant, is that in this case, I'm 
cross-compiling for i386 arch on an x86_64 host.

Any tips gladly welcomed.

Regards,
Phil.
