I meant: the fix for the getdate bug of having the object listed twice is to drop the `AC_LIBOBJ([getdate])' from getdate.m4. The other thing is: I would like automake to be able to warn about this situation. It currently does not do this. My next thought was: automake would only be able to warn about this if the Makefile.am used $(LIBOBJS) rather than @[EMAIL PROTECTED] But from glancing at automake.in this seems wrong, too. So please forget about this argument for now. Sorry for the noise. Cheers, Ralf
