You should simply write the test as: AC_SEARCH_LIBS([h5open_f],[hdf5_fortran]) then specify the proper LDFLAGS, and maybe also FFLAGS, (or whatever the appropriate variable for specifying compiler flags to be passed to your FORTRAN compiler is called), when you run configure: path/to/configure FFLAGS='...' LDFLAGS='-L/path/to/my/libs' ... (My apologies for inadvertently omitting the `-L' from the example I posted earlier). Note that the `-I' specification doesn't belong in LDFLAGS; if you need it, it should go in CPPFLAGS, (for C/C++), and I guess the equivalent would be FFLAGS for FORTRAN. (These are all flags which should be left for the user to specify, when running configure).
