oh, maybe you need the OMF files for scrollkeeper. I have them installed
and it works, so maybe that's what you're missing:

$ cat doc/libgda-C.omf.in
<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE omf PUBLIC "-//OMF//DTD Scrollkeeper OMF Variant V1.0//EN"
"http://scrollkeeper.sourceforge.net/dtds/scrollkeeper-omf-1.0/scrollkeeper-omf.dtd";>

</omf>

use something similar (replacing the seriesid with the value returned by
scrollkeeper-gen-seriesid), and in your Makefile.am:

if HAVE_SCROLLKEEPER
 
omf_dest_dir=$(datadir)/omf/libgda
scrollkeeper_localstate_dir = $(SCROLLKEEPER_LOCALSTATE_DIR)
 
install-data-local:
        $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(omf_dest_dir)
        -for file in $(srcdir)/*.omf; do                        \
                $(INSTALL_DATA) $$file $(DESTDIR)$(omf_dest_dir); \
        done
        -scrollkeeper-update -p $(scrollkeeper_localstate_dir)
 
uninstall-local:
        -for file in $(srcdir)/*.omf; do                        \
                basefile=`basename $$file`;                     \
                rm -f $(omf_dest_dir)/$$basefile;               \
        done
        -rmdir $(omf_dest_dir)
        -scrollkeeper-update -p $(scrollkeeper_localstate_dir)
 
endif
 
EXTRA_DIST = \
        NAMESPACE \
        libgda-C.omf.in

that should work, I think.

cheers
