Trying to add a target with
libexec_LIBRARIES
results in an error:
error: 'libexecdir' is not a legitimate directory for 'LIBRARIES'
But it looks like having libraries in libexec is something already in
use by a few things.
On a Fedora 20 machine:
$ find /libexec -name \*.so
/usr/libexec/p7zip/7z.so
/usr/libexec/coreutils/libstdbuf.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/sudo_noexec.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/sudoers.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/group_file.so
/usr/libexec/sudo/system_group.so
/usr/libexec/systemtap/libHelperSDT_amd64.so
/usr/libexec/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.3/liblto_plugin.so
/usr/libexec/deja-dup/tools/libduplicity.so
Shouldn't automake support installing libraries in libexec?
No. libexecdir is supposed to take binaries only.
IMO, these listed above are packaging bugs.
Ralf assessment is correct. I'm closing this bug as "Working
as Intended".
Thanks,
Stefano
