liblanbassador is slowly evolving, and it's getting to a point where a plain Makefile is becoming cumbersome, because it needs to install the shared library and include files to the system, and the directories where those files reside may differ from distro to distro.

With Autotools, building becomes more flexible:

# Configure project so that it install to the correct path
./configure --prefix=/usr

make
make install

This change has introduced a breaking change, in which the filename under which liblanbassador is installed has changed due to the way libtool works. See the message for commit 52341a388e for more details.
