Linking can't find library in Deployment build

I've got a simple Xcode 1.5 project that compiles and works fine with the Development Build but when I do a Deployment build it tells me it can't find a library. The library is the first library in the list which means it probably won't find any of the libraries. The project has about 10 static libraries which are named something along the lines of macosx_abc.a The libraries are all included in the project.

Most of the projects I work with don't have libraries so I may be doing something obviously dumb here.

What I thought the obvious thing would be is that the library search paths in the deployment build would be different than the development Build but that is not the case. The Library search paths are identical.

As a test I used the Duplicate build command to copy the Development Build to a Test Build. I did a full Clean & Build and it worked fine (as expected but just verifying before the next step).
I then turned off Zero Link in the Test build and left all other settings exactly as they were. I then do a Clean & Build and I get the error that my first library can't be found.


Why would a library link fine with the Zero Link option and not work with the Zero Link option off?

The libraries I'm using were provided by a 3rd party so I have no way of looking at their source. Can their possibly be something in the library that would prevent the link if Zero Link is not on.

I'm sure without the seeing the full xcode project file with all the settings it would be hard to know what's wrong but I would appreciate any insight, guess or recommended readings.

Thanks,
Mike
