I know Kopete is in pkgsrc. What I meant by "my own Kopete package" 
was my own 0.7 package - based on the 0.6.2 one. I am updating the 
existing package. What this report is about is the fact that It's not 
linking against the static library correctly and only provides a 
static libkopete. I just want to know how to get libtool to do this 
correctly. Thanks.
