Hi,
when one decides to drive make in a non-recursive fashion, one has to write an Automake file like this: lib_LTLIBRARIES = foo/bar.la foo_bar_la_SOURCES = foo/one.c foo/two.c Usually I stuff that into a file called "foo/Automakefile" and "include foo/Automakefile" from the real Makefile.am. Despite being in a subdirectory, one may not omit foo/; that is ok. However, it is tiresome. Is there perhaps a way, or a planned development action, so that one can omit all foo/s inside foo/Automakefile and have automake automatically add foo/ upon seeing "include" (or a variant thereof) in the upper Makefile.am? Also, when subdir-objects is in effect, it will create odd long names such as foo/foo_bar_la-one.o where at least the foo_ prefix would be redundant in some cases. Jan
