Or, should EXTRA_PRIMARY only Roger be used for this type of conditional? If Automake sees `dir_PRIMARY = fubar' it knows that it must output some rules to build `fubar', even if `dir_PRIMARY' is defined conditionally.

Now, you're right that with most primaries adding a superfluous EXTRA_PRIMARY shouldn't hurt, that's like telling twice to Automake you need building rules for the listed targets. *_LTLIBRARIES is different because in order to build the library you need to know where it will be installed (and pass the appropriate -rpath option to libtool).

I was using -rpath too, so found the error a bit confusing.

automake warning using lib_LTLIBRARIES
I'm getting this warning from automake: roger@whinlatter:~/gimp-print/newbuild$ automake automake: both `configure.ac' and `configure.in' present: ignoring `configure.in' automake: src/main/Makefile.am: `libgimpprint.la' is already going to be installed in `lib' I'm sure this is not my fault. I do not explicitly redefine libdir, and my Makefile.am looks sane. I'm using automake 1.5, and libtool 1.4.2a on Debian GNU/Linux. Is this a libtool issue? The Makefile.am follows. Sorry it's not shortened, but I don't want to cut out the cause of the problem. The '##Programs' section is the relevent one. BTW, just a suggestion. AM_CONDITIONAL only accepts one line for the if or else part. Would it be feasable to use multiple lines? automake could transform multiple lines into several if statements, or there may be a cleaner way. I sometimes wish make conditionals could also be used as well as automake conditionals.
