Having said that, I think it would be the "cleaner" > approach to have lcd4linux link dynamically against liblcd4linux. I think so, too. I just feared that the shared lib would have some bad influences on lcd4linux, and therefore preferred not to touch lcd4linux. But if it works clean and fine, I would also use the link against shared liblcd4linux. > Just so I understand this correctly - the way it is now, _all_ I'm > supposed to do is to run configure and make, right?

Whenever something strange happened while compiling, I keyed in 'auto' and pressed Tab twice, so my bash completion showed me all executables starting with 'auto'. I started them all several timne, and after a while, everything worked again :-) I think it depends wheter you're using the CVS version or the distribution tarball, because different files are included in each. I also have never been shure which files to include in either archive.
