 link libraries to libraries a good idea?

Hello,
I'm wondering if it is generally a good idea to link a library to another
existing library or to tell the linker explicitly what to link -l.. -l...
Does anyone have good cases to do that or leave it?

What's your question about the C language? Did you know there are newsgroups
that discuss Gnu tools and GCC?

I think you missed his point.  The only thing C language has to say about
linking is that it is a phase of translation.  Questions about linking are best
discussed in a newsgroup devoted to your compiler.
