[Flac-dev] flac-1.1.0: libtool warnings

Hi,

And thanks for flac.  There's a minor problem when compiling flac:
libtool warns about mixing up shared and static libraries. Typical
messages are:

*** Warning: Linking the shared library libxmms-flac.la against the
*** static library ../../src/plugin_common/libplugin_common.a is not portable!

*** Warning: Linking the shared library libxmms-flac.la against the
*** static library ../../src/share/grabbag/libgrabbag.a is not portable!

*** Warning: Linking the shared library libxmms-flac.la against the
*** static library ../../src/share/gain_analysis/libgain_analysis.a is not
portable!

*** Warning: Linking the shared library libxmms-flac.la against the
*** static library ../../src/share/utf8/libutf8.a is not portable!

This is because libtool compiles so called position independent
object code for shared libraries (-fPIC compiler option) and non-PIC
code for static libraries and executables.  Bringing non-PIC code into
shared libraries seems to be harmless, though definitely not
recommended (it affects dynamic linker internals).

To fix this issue, simply turning static noinst_LIBRARIES into
libootl noinst_LTLIBRARIES is enough.  Libtool then will manage PIC and
non-PIC object code automagically.

I ran into the same issue shortly after the release, when updating the
Debian packages, so I fixed it in CVS:

date: 2003/02/07 02:43:02;  author: mzimmerman;  state: Exp;  lines: +2 -2
Build libtool archives instead of plain .a archives, so that PIC versions
are built and can they be portably linked into shared libraries.

However, there has't been a new release since then.
