libfoo.la is already going to be installed in `lib'

I hope I didn't ask about this one already. I have a Makefile.am that uses conditionals: foo/Makefile.am: if COND1 libfoo = libfoo.la endif if COND2 libfoo = libfoo.la endif ... lib_LTLIBRARIES = $(libfoo) and when I run automake-1.6.3 on it I get: automake: foo/Makefile.am: `lib

Automake-1.6.3. So I have a Makefile.am that build both PROGRAMS and LTLIBRARIES. One of the .c modules is used by both a program and a library. I get the warning: automake: foo/Makefile:NN: object `foo.$(OBJEXT)' created both with libtool and without and I'm assuming it's because this cas

I am currently in the process of porting the Hurd to the L4 microkernel. At the moment, the Hurd uses custom makefiles which, to be nice, are a jungle. Rather than try to extend them to support a new idl compiler and microkernel dependent files, I decided to try to use automake and autoconf. On
