Bingo!
After introducing this additions
Makefile.am:
libSciFacBase_la_SOURCES = \
buildme.c
buildme.c:
/*
void do_really_nothing_useful()
{
}
*/
it works.
Bizarre, I can't believe it. :-)
This project now features a source tree with customizable modules,
handles module dependencies, builds in separate build tree, installs
in seperate build tree..
[mvw@pcserver scifac.build]$ ../scifac/configure
--prefix=/home/mvw/work/scifac.install --without-Dataserver --without-Dataserver2
--without-Dataserver3
.. and stumbles over an empty _SOURCES list. ROTFL.
Thanks for your remark, Alexandre!
