You're passing udevdir to AC_ARG_WITH, which will cause autoconf to set with_udevdir. That's not what you're using for the actual setting (with_udevrulesdir). I think if you change it to [udevrulesdir] it will work. Also, it might be a good idea to be defensive and check that pkg-config returned anything useful. That's pretty unlikely at that point, though. Otherwise, this seems good to me. Dan
