1. some files unnecessarily recompile. 2. .ali files are created twice

[Victor Porton]

1. No matter if the entire library was already compiled, some Ada files are 
re-compiled every time I type "make". This is an error.

Please help to eliminate this error.

2. .ali files are created in both lib/ and in obj-dynamic/ dirs. This seems 
redundant.

My source is available at
https://github.com/vporton/xml-boiler/tree/master/src

It was configured as follows:

./configure --enable-debug --enable-maintainer-mode \
  --with-gprbuild="gprbuild -j8" --prefix=/usr/local/stow/xml-boiler

Please help to solve these two problems.

Try running gprbuild with the "-vm" or "-vh" flag, which should tell you
the reasons for the recompilations.

They are built in the object directory and copied to the library
directory. That is the way it is.

It seems to need some automake/autoconf dance which didn't work
immediately, and in any case

   Compile
      [Ada]          boiler-rdf_recursive_descent.adb
   boiler-rdf_recursive_descent.adb:18:06: file "rdf.ads" not found

but I won't pursue that.

Solved using "with" GPR directives instead of manual "-l...".
