In general you will have no problems, I did not work with static
libraries, but with shared ones never had a problem. I do not think that
recompiling the libraries with debug info provides much help, unless the
libraries are buggy.

So, if I need all the debugging information ( line numbers etc. ) even from the libraries, do I need to recompile the libraries? Or is the "-g" flag just for the program, enough to bring all info?
