Symlinks below $DESTDIR$prefix are best done with an install-exec-hook or an install-data-hook, cd to the target's directory, and using $(LN_S) so that a copy is done on systems that do not provide 'ln -s'. (This is more or less documented in the Autoconf manual.) Cheers, Ralf _______________________________________________ http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
