Make sure that all of the DLLs are in your executable search path or may be found in a directory "../bin" offset from where the .a and .la files are located. If libtool can't find the actual DLL then it will assume that the .a library is an implementation library and not an interface library for a DLL. > When I try to link static libraries, then a warning "Linking the shared > library libgtkhtml-2.la against a loadable module - libhtmllayouthtml.a is > not portable!" is displayed. What does "not portable" mean in this > context? I suspect that this complaint is because the library doesn't have versioning information as part of its name.
