Re: naming convention for object files.

[Nicolas Bock]

Hello list,

I found the reason for the difference in naming: In the second library I had

lib_LTLIBRARIES = libsomething.la

libsomething_la_CPPFLAGS = -I../../

when I changed that to

AM_CPPFLAGS = -I../../

the naming changed from a.F90 -> libsomething_la-a.lo to a.F90 ->
a.lo. Very strange.
