AC_INIT doesn't have anything to do with where the package installs. That argument of AC_INIT should be the name of some file in your source tree so that Autoconf can be sure that it found the right directory. What you want to do is not really best handled by Autoconf, in my opinion. I would deal with this in the installation rule in your Makefile; rather than installing the library into $(libdir), install into $(libdir)/pkg. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
