No, LDADD does not help.
I have some 3rd party libraries to include into the
install target. Currently I cannot add them to
lib_LIBRARIES, because then make clean removes them
(or at least it tries).
What I would need is either some "noclean_" prefix
for the primaries, or I have to copy all files that
are going to be installed into a local directory.
I don't like neither of these options.
