No, it's backwards. If an application is linking against your library using libtool, all of the .la files your own library references *must* be available at build-time, even if doing dynamic linking. The packages providing the "-l" libs are *not* required for normal operation, but they are required if you intend to support static linking or linking with a broken version of libtool. -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
