           Summary: [GTK] [CMake] Clean up library linking
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Gtk
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mrobinson at webkit.org


We currently wrap -Wl,--whole-archive around some libraries to avoid dropping symbols from convenience libraries (libtool used to take care of this for us). Instead of doing that manually we can write a macro to do it for all libraries in a list. This also exposes some situations in which we are over-linking, linking in the same convenience library twice, or compiling the same files into multiple convenience libraries. We should clean all of that up.
