exists, libtool will add all libraries libB.la refers to (dependency_libs
field) to the linker command line and store them in the dependency_libs
field of libA.la. So everything that subsequently links with libA will also
link to these extra libraries. This causes too much overlinking.
This commit modifies Mk/Uses/libtool.mk so it empties the dependency_libs
field in .la libraries during staging. However, because .la libraries have
very limited use when dependency_libs is empty it makes sense to completely
remove them during staging.
So with this commit USES=libtool is modified to remove .la libraries and a
new form (USES=libtool:keepla) is introduced in case they need to be kept
(dependency_libs is still emptied).
PORTREVISION is bumped on all ports with USES=libtool that install .la
libraries. Most ports are also changed to add :keepla because .la
libraries have to be kept around as long as there are dependent ports with
.la libraries that refer to them in their dependency_libs field. In most
cases :keepla can be removed again as soon as all dependent ports that
install .la libraries have some form of USES=libtool added to their
Makefile.

USES libtool
Chase libxklavier shlib change
On all ports depending on libxklavier:
- Support stage
- USES=libtool when possible to reduce overlinking
- Support packaging as a user
Mate is a lite desktop forked from gnome2.
Most of the work is done by Jeremy Messenger (mezz@). The only thing I did
was update a few ports to later 1.6 release and attempting to keep up with
ports infra changes. Resulting bugs are all mine.
Mate is a sort of replacement for Gnome 2. So people wanting to keep a
Gnome 2 like desktop should switch. Gnome 2 will be replaced by Gnome 3
in the near future. This switch will be announce with a transition time
so people have more time to switch if they haven't already.
This release was made possible by everyone that send friendly pokes to
keep mate on my mind.
