Re: Getting files in /lib/udev/rules.d with Makefile.am

[Diego Elio Pettenò]

You want to use pkg-config to get the right directory to install to, and
make it a new install class

dnl configure.ac
PKG_CHECK_VARIABLE(udevrulesdir, ...) (or whatever the name is of the
macro, I forgot)

# Makefile.am
udevrules_DATA = foo.rules.
