Hi, while hacking on a plugin for mmsd to deal with supl push messages, I ran into a few "not so nice" solved things in configure.ac / Makefile.am 1) libtool handling libtool configuration is meanwhile done using LT_INIT(options) instead of AC_PROC_LIBTOOL and alike ==> because of libtool stores some of the configuration in the generated libtool shell script, it's reasonable to run LT_INIT as late as possible (painfully learned while writing and porting c++ software for many OS) 2) additional libraries do no require explicit libraries (like -lresolv), always let a devop in doubt invoke configure with LIBS="-lmyspecialwrapper" to wrap between available libs/functions and requirements See pkgsrc's nbcompat library for example Best regards, Jens
