how are files in .libs/ dirs installed?

Hi,

If this is *not* the right mailing list, please be so kind as to direct me
elsewhere...

This may not be the brightest question ever, but I've got a problem here
where, during the build, several files are created in .libs/ subdirs (which I
understand is libtool's responsibility). Files from most of those dirs are
eventually installed during the "make install" phase, but at least one file
from at least one .libs/ dir is not... So I was wondering what "criteria"
need to be met for those files to be installed during "make install"?

To make it more specific, I'm packaging "gambas", for which I had to change
some small things in Makefile.am files, so I now run the following to
generate the Makefiles:
libtoolize --force
aclocal
autoheader
automake -a
autoconf
./configure --with-kde-libraries=/usr/lib/kde3 --prefix=/usr

I ran into another problem with one makefile.am (probably not coincidentally
the one in the dir where the file isn't being installed), with errors like
these:
src/exec/Makefile.am: object `gbx_subr_test.$(OBJEXT)' created both with
libtool and without

Looking in that file, I indeed noticed that many *.c files were listed twice,
both under "gbx_SOURCES" and "lib_gb_la_SOURCES".

So I removed them from gbx_SOURCES, and then all makefiles were successfully
generated...

The build process completes successfully as well, except that, when installing
the resulting rpm, it complains that "lib.gb.so.0" is needed, which should be
provided by the package itself... So I noticed that file is created during
build in src/exec/.libs/, but for some reason it is not installed during
"make install".

Could this have anything to do with me deleting part of the Makefile.am? I
pasted the original file at the bottom...

Many thanks,

Hans
