Hi Thomas,

I've been reading the manuals for autoconf/automake and have been
unable to get a setup working correctly with autoconf. I've written up
a toy shared library and right now the Makefile has a rule to install
the library directly to `/usr/local`. All I really want from autoconf
is to be able to have `--prefix` user-configurable. I figured it was
better to use autoconf/automake than reinvent the wheel, but I'm
totally unable to get it working.
For shared libraries and Automake, I'd have a look at libtool. Start
with the chapter in the Automake manual
