The OMPI_CHECK_PACKAGE macro is a rather nasty macro that tries to reduce the replication of checking for a header then a library, then setting CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, LIBS, and all that. There are two components that use the TM libraries, so we have a centralized macro that sets the configuration data for the two components. The -I, -L, -ls are set in OMPI_CHECK_PACKAGE.

In the OMPI_CHECK_TM macro, you probably want to check for pbs- config, then if that fails, run the OMPI_CHECK_PACKAGE stuff. Of course, you might want to run the OMPI_CHECK_PACKAGE code with CFLAGS and LDFLAGS set to what you get from pbs-config, to make sure the libraries actually work. The way we set flags is a bit weird -- you need to set the environment variables:

   $1_CPPFLAGS
   $1_CFLAGS
   $1_LDFLAGS
   $1_LIBS


I have made a crude version that uses 'pbs-config' and check uses the OMPI_CHECK_PACKAGE macro but in the OMPI_CHECK_PACKAGE_HEADER macro /include is appended if it not /usr or /usr/include. So there must option to prevent this (pbs-config give the right value). Then i do not have to set the CPPFLAGS variable.

OMPI_CHECK_PACKAGE_LIB:
For the library name there is also -l prepended so i can not use the name form 'pbs-config --libs' and it as the same problem as with checking the header if it is not standard then /lib is appended.

Maybe there must be another macro that can handle packages that supply
the right values to compile the package.
