+# @FUNCTION: prune_libtool_files
+# @USAGE: [--all]
+# @DESCRIPTION:
+# Locate unnecessary libtool files (.la) and libtool static archives
+# (.a) and remove them from installation image.
+#
+# By default, .la files are removed whenever the static linkage can
+# either be performed using pkg-config or doesn't introduce additional
+# flags.
+#
+# If '--all' argument is passed, all .la files are removed. This is
+# usually useful when the package installs plugins and does not use .la
+# files for loading them.
+#
+# The .a files are only removed whenever corresponding .la files state
+# that they should not be linked to, i.e. whenever these files
+# correspond to plugins.
+#
+# Note: if your package installs any .pc files, this function implicitly
+# calls pkg-config. You should add it to your DEPEND in that case.
