You don't want to link an already built library with a new library. You want to build a target with both libraries in it. Dependencies between the libs will be handled by the linker. So look for the Makefile which contains the line(s) that link the existing library, and duplicate the same lines (possibly conditional) to link in your new library also. Amicalement, -- Albert.
