I should add that this is not the Official Way[tm] of doing things. And because it does not remove the actual libs, it might cause weird failures on some systems (I think we've actually had a bug report that involved such a situation. I believe this instead should be pretty safe and quick (save for white space in file names): find . \( -name .libs -o -name _libs \) -prune -o -name \*.la -print | xargs ./libtool --mode=clean rm -f Cheers, Ralf
