Well, if you link against it, then you want it to be used. Anyway, this has absolutely nothing to do with libtool. If you don't use -Wl,--as-needed, then you will get this behaviour. with -Wl,--as-needed it will work fine, because the linker drops unnecessary dependencies (increasing overall startup performance). Unfortunately, your depending libraries usually have to be fixed to work correctly with -Wl,--as-needed. I fixed a lot of instances of these kind of bugs for libraries that KDE depends but I totally ignored GNOME related bugs.
