First: Your build is not VPATH clean, because you are doing a lot of symlinking by hand in several Makefile.am's. First, you should be using $(LN_S) together with AC_PROG_LN_S for symlinks, second you should link to $(srcdir)/relpath/$@ instead, third you should probably instead just be using AC_CONFIG_LINKS and be happy that you don't have to care about this yourself. All explained in Autoconf docs. Apart from these changes, `make distuninstallcheck' is the first part of `make distcheck' to complain, and it complains about some files which `make uninstall' misses to remove. This is with the HEAD branch as well as branch-1-5 of libtool. So, can you try either the patch from http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-libtool/2004-10/msg00170.html and possibly branch-2-0 from CVS?

I /think/ this has nothing to do with your problem (though I cannot be sure, as I haven't understood what went wrong), and is fine because `make distcheck' is attempting a DESTDIR install. BTW, you did not mention your system at all, neither whether you are doing a VPATH build or not. All of this would have been helpful (still is if the problem remains unsolved), also whether or not an installed version of your package exists on your system or not.
