Too baaad... this causes that *.la of libs/modules using
libcairo-gobject would have different dependencies (-lcairo-gobject or
libcairo-gobject.la) depending on presence of cairo-static.
All those .la files should be moved to their -static as well. As for
generated dependencies builders don't have *-static installed, so
pkgconfig would be used and in resoult -lcairo-gobject should be put.
Or maybe building *-static _should_ require -static and not only -devel?
Either move this .la to -devel, or remove at all.
Regular .la are part of _static_ building, so there's no place in -devel
for them. It only causes troubles.
There was a discussion (well, not too many of 'discussion' were there)
recently, please read this and continue there. Also:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=581352
In short: instead removing I've suggested repackaging into *-static,
just because in contrary to other distros we support this kind of build.
Without .la files there we might remove all the *-static too, as in
general they would be useless.
