Neither works, because automake disallows it:
| Makefile.am:1: `bindir' is not a legitimate directory for `DATA'
I think Ed won't get around writing (un)install-exec-local rules
(and adjust CLEANFILES, by the way).
But I have a question myself: does libnetcdf.def get generated by the
compiler, and if, how exactly (please show command line), and if not,
is it written by libtool? Maybe in that case libtool should be smart
enough to install it itself? (I really don't know.)
Cheers,
Ralf
