yeah libtool is very hard to get rid of see how many of files in your
sysroot has zlib.la added to other .la files. You need to clean all
those

I wrote a small script which grepped oe-core for occurrence of all
zlib.la in *.la files in sysroot
and then dumps the ipks content to figure out which package provided
that .la then bumped PRs of those recipes which were providing those
ipks.
unfortunately this script was in tmdir and got deleted.
