The idea is the following: if libfoo.la is built by your package, then you write: mylib_la_LIBADD = relative/path/to/in/tree/libfoo.la and if it is built in the same directory, then you write: mylib_la_LIBADD = libfoo.la If however it is installed by another package, then you write mylib_la_LIBADD = -lfoo or something like mylib_la_LIBADD = @FOO_LIB@ where @FOO_LIB@ is computed by configure code you supply in configure.ac, and typically may contain '-L/some/path' as well as '-lfoo' entries. There are existing Autoconf and third-party macros to help with this computation. Hope that helps. Cheers, Ralf
