Do nested subdirs of source always require building temporary libraries

I just saw an Autotools example with deep nested levels of subdirs....

The lower levels had Makefile.am's that defined noninst_LIBRARY stuff

which were libraries you didn't install but you just made in order

to be able to link it with the lone executable at top of source tree.


This seems like a lot of work just to have a sub-sub-directory of src/.

Is it really true you need to make a library just to have multiple

levels of source?

I can't believe it.

And do you need AC_CONFIG_RANLIB in configure.ac as well?
