Just put bin_PROGRAMS = mine mine_SOURCES = main.c gtk/gtk.c gtk/gtk.h in src/Makefile.am. If you're dying to have another Makefile in src/gtk, you can create a library as an intermediate step (add AC_PROG_RANLIB in configure.ac then): src/Makefile.am: bin_PROGRAMS = mine mine_SOURCES = main.c mine_LDADD = gtk/libgtkstuff.a src/gtk/makefile.am has noinst_LIBRARIES = libgtkstuff.a libgtkstuff_a_SOURCES = gtk.c gtk.h But I really recommend the first variant.
