This -rpath is a libtool option, not a linker option. It is required when buidling installable libtool libraries. Without it libtool would build a convenience library (as documented). Whether libtool -rpath will eventually be passed down to the linker is libtool's decision; nothing automake should be concerned with. I'm not aware of any way to interfere with this, but perhaps you should check the archives of the libtool list where this has been often discussed. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz Shared books are happy books. http://www.bookcrossing.com/friend/gadl
