I should have explained that this is not an in-place configure & build,
but one in a parallel directory. So there is no .c or .h files either. I
am building now in two directories (normally) a jack and a nojack build.
For testing the problem Nils found I created a new directory and
did ../denemo/configure, make to create the files you see in that
listing.
I am still able to build in my jack and nojack directories because, I
suspect, I still have the required libsmf.a built, and I have never
cleaned. But I am skating on thin ice now, if I clean I will not be able
to re-build.
I have just tried to do an in-place build, and that has failed as well.
Can you find the rule in your libsmf/Makefile that builds the libsmf.a?
