+- lib name should be group name + suffix/prefix ?!

+  headers should be installed in pkgincludedir? maybe yes on the other hand
+  the user can pass the directory to configure via --includedir

+- at the moment make dist from within a clean source will not work
+  (this is related to the nodist problem / old automake version)
+  this is caused by BUILT_SOURCES not working for make dist(check?)
+  and the dependency generation

-- CLEANFILES doesn't work in included makefile either

-BUG:
-- first time builds without dependency files fail (.P)!
-  maybe yet another problem caused by automake?
-  probably yes
-  AHH:
-  automake supports include
-  the real problem is: at the time automake runs there is no include!
-  (since it is "added" by the configure script)
+  distcheck -> dist -> distdir -> DISTFILES
 
-  => the real problem:
-  configure should find the make file snippet
-  Makefile.am should include it
-  automake is run before configure (on the Makefile.am)
+  all -> all-redirect -> all-am -> Makefile -> BUILT_SOURCES => bene
 
+  => how to add dependency on BUILT_SOURCES for dist?
+  the real problem is that make dist should not depend on BUILT_SOURCES
+  unfortunately we can't fix this as long as we use a old automake version
+  (DISTFILES includes generated files we would like to mark as noinst)
