With this macro, the outer configure runs the inner configure automatically. Is that what you want? I hope the description in the manual is sufficient. > Eliminating the second configure run is sometimes possible, but for Ralf, what are you speaking about?

I agree with Ralf here, that if you plan to release both of the packages independently, it's best to write a README which says that libgdbi has to be installed first. If you combine the packages, you might run into problems when youtry to link CGDB against the not-yet-installed libgdbi? Maybe it's just my prejudice, but I'd feel safer if I had it as two packages.
