This appears to be aproblem with libtool+automake; if I use a static library (no libtool) I don't see this problem.
Is there a workaround/bugfix? This problem means that autoreconf bails with an error... (Yes, I've tried a couple of other choices, like using a variable in the conditionals and setting lib_LTLIBRARIES = $(foo).) --Makefile.am: AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS = foreign if FOO_A lib_LTLIBRARIES=libfoo.la endif if FOO_B lib_LTLIBRARIES=libfoo.la endif libfoo_la_SOURCES = foo.c --configure.ac: AC_INIT AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([Makefile.am]) AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(foo, 1.0) AC_PROG_CC AC_PROG_LIBTOOL FOO=a AM_CONDITIONAL(FOO_A, test x"$FOO" = xa) AM_CONDITIONAL(FOO_B, test x"$FOO" = xb) AC_CONFIG_FILES(Makefile) AC_OUTPUT
