Right. Now that the package 'ffcall' has been renamed to 'libffcall', the second argument of AC_LIB_FROMPACKAGE should be [libffcall]. It results in a configure option --with-libffcall-prefix, exactly as one would expect. > > *** m4/lib-link.m4.orig 2008-03-12 05:46:15.000000000 +0100 > > --- m4/lib-link.m4 2008-03-12 05:44:50.000000000 +0100 > > this adds extra 8 blank lines to each configure which uses > AC_LIB_LINKFLAGS. > intentional? Not intentional, but harmless. Years ago I carefully added 'dnl' at the end of some lines inside autoconf macros, to avoid the blank lines in the output. But it made the macros less readable, and - worse - in some situations it caused shell syntax errors in the generated configure files. So I now don't care about a few blank lines in 'configure' any more. Bruno
