When I try to link static libraries, then a warning "Linking the shared

I suspect that this complaint is because the library doesn't have
versioning information as part of its name.

This complaint is because libhtmllayouthtml.la was linked with the -module flag to libtool, which means it is meant to be a dlopenable module, and on some platforms (Mac OS X/darwin NetBSD/a.out) may not be used as input to the linker.


If libhtmllayouthtml.la was not linked with the -module flag, it is a bug.

Thanks,
