+# Sets the mode of pruning libtool files. The values correspond to

+# Defaults to pruning the libtool files when static libraries are not

+# for modules (plugins) will be kept in case plugin loader needs them.
+#
+# If set to 'modules', the .la files for modules will be removed
+# as well. This is often the preferred option.
+#
+# If set to 'all', all .la files will be removed unconditionally. This
+# option is discouraged and shall be used only if 'modules' does not
+# remove the files.
