ibltdl/configure.in, and replace the above code by AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([../tools]) so that Automake find its files. If you decide to start shipping auxiliary files with libltdl, then this code can be changed to AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([.]). I suppose some people will mind about the extra kilobytes, though. [*] To be fair, I guess it's harmless if you don't rerun automake in the libltdl directory embeded in a package. However I think it's quite common to do so, for instance `autoreconf' will work recursively. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz

aradigm). I suggest you install Automake 1.7.3 (any version >= 1.7 will do), and run it with the -Wall option. This will flag various unportable constructs in your Makefile. If you fixes these (using `.idl.cpp:' instead of `%.cpp: %.idl', using `$(idlsources:.idl=.cpp)' instead of `$(forall...)'), then Automake should work better. At least it will see your sources, so it can output rules to build them. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
