That's a libtool thing. You can use automake without libtool, but I'm glad we didn't - libtool got us working again on Cygwin. > Naturally, the first thing I want to do is use a debugger or > valgrind and it feels weird to be manually futzing with the > environment and running programs from .libs/. Let libtool do the futzing/running: "libtool --mode=execute gdb progname" or "libtool --mode=execute valgrind progname" Or for our examples setup, I typically just assume I'll be steadily debugging, and I set: "export LIBMESH_RUN='libtool --mode=execute gdb --args'" --- Roy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
