I don't think just building packages and removing the .la will work,
the inter-dependency is too wide, I count too many .la files up there.
Reading these:
<A HREF="http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/LAFileRemoval">http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/LAFileRemoval</A>
<A HREF="http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/08/msg00783.html">http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2009/08/msg00783.html</A>
it looks like Debian are using sed to remove the .la files from
dependency_libs field in .la files, there's a debhelper script, IIUC
it's run before they build a package.
This means it's something that a script run as root in the chroot can
do, but I guess it needs to be fine-tuned.
Meanwhile, just removing .la files will break a lot of builds (note
that we have a lot of packages to rebuild for e.g. new libnotify major
in Cauldron)... :(
