OK, from this suggestion, I'm going to change all _LDADD lines from -lfoo to $(top_builddir)/pathto/libfoo.a. I'll remove all _DEPENDENCIES completly. Does this sound like a correct change to you? BTW, all the _DEPENDENCIES that I'm talking about are libraries that are built from my own project, but not necessarily in the same Makefile. Thanks, Bob Rossi
