The problem I'm seeing (with at least automake-1.12.1 and automake-1.15)
is that the .deps directories are not being created along the subdir
path, so the build is failing.
So if A/Makefile.am contains:
foo_SRCS = ... $(srcdir)/../foo/bar.c
As far as I am aware, it is wise/required that source paths be
subordinate to the Makefile.am location (no .. bits). All source
files are available under the Makefile (possibly via VPATH) so the
$(srcdir) bit is also harmful. Perhaps there is some stylistic reason
to want to put the top-level Makefile in a subdirectory of the
project?
Are you doing this so that there is one Makefile per program?
Due to the availability of Automake include files, hardly any text
need appear in a top-level Makefile.am, although the full content of
Makefile.in would appear at that location in the source package.
