Only partially correct. 

This is libtool warning you about this package doing something non-portable:
Linking a shared library against a static.

This warning is largely irrelevant when building on Linux, because linking a
shared against a static library basically (i.e. in most cases) is possible on Linux.

Whether this warning is related to the breakdown is a different question, and
should be analyzed. It's rather unlikely, but it could be an indication of ntop
not being ready for dynamic linkage.

All removing the *.la would do, is to silence the warning, it would not change
anything about ntop potentially doing something "naughty".
