Hi Michael, sorry for the late reply, have been quite busy with astronomy day in Germany. Back to rsyslog...

That sounds exactly like what I would love to have. However, I am no autotools expert. If you (or someone else) can lend me a helping hand in creating the necessary config files for autotools, I will gladly do it in that way. The current setup has two things that I do not really like: a) the need for two tarballs I do not know how to integrate the full structure in a single "make dist". And I do not like to simply include the *full* ommysql subdir within the extra_dist make target - that gets me a lot of files I really don't need. b) need to specify version twice Currently, ommsysql has its own version definition in its configure.ac. It's error prone and I know I'll mess up with it sooner or later. That makes sense once it is a totally independent package, but not at the time being. Ideally, I would like autotools to know the dependencies and create things correctly. As said, any help is deeply appreciated.
