... in this case, it can be shortened to AM_CONDITIONAL([WANT_FOO], [$whatever]) > Makefile.am: > if WANT_FOO > FOO = foo > else > FOO = > endif > bin_PROGRAMS = $(FOO) > EXTRA_PROGRAMS = foo You don't have to define EXTRA_PROGRAMS, since Automake is able to trace possible values of bin_PROGRAMS. Have a nice day, Stepan
