Automake outputs 'AR = ar' in Makefile.in for rules creating old libraries iff neither AC_PROG_LIBTOOL nor another method to define AR correctly is used in configure.ac. So this issue concerns packages using Automake but not using Libtool. I figured with AM_PROG_AR eventually being needed anyway that would fix this in one go ... A good workaround, as already mentioned, is to use this in configure.ac: AC_CHECK_TOOL([AR], [ar], [false]) Cheers, Ralf ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
