I had a problem similar to yours, I have a networking library with some example programs. I have it set up to compile the sample programs after the library, but before anything is installed. This works, even though my simple knowledge tells me the sample program requires the lib to be installed. I believe it was a matter of adding this line to Makefile.am:
LDADD = libmylib.a And then for my sample program: noinst_PROGRAMS = mysampleprog I hope this helps, Dave -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/install-per-target-....-tf4581835.html#a13202788 Sent from the Gnu - Automake - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
