Libtool and Support for Shared Libraries (2)

libimap and libsieve have to depend on libcom_err.a whenever the bundled 
libcom_err.a is used, so that the bundled libcom_err.a is build before 
libimap and libsieve are linked.  Any ideas how to achieve this, that 
are different from what I did?

I moved "-lcyrus -lcyrus_min" in Makefile.PL.in from MYEXTLIB to 
OTHERLDFLAGS, so that the target subdirs does not depend anymore on 
"-lcyrus -lcyrus_min".  Please try with the uploaded fix.  (I can 
understand why you got this error, but I do not get it.)

Pass --prefix to ./configure .  The resulting binaries have to be aware 
where the shared libraries are (when the shared libraries are not on 
standard locations) and probably using make install DESTDIR= with 
libtool is either wrong or implemented/handled wrong in Automake/libtool.
