tags 711297 + patch thanks With the patch referred to by Wookey, the autoconf build works fine for me. (I'm reattaching the patch, with the formatting issues introduced somewhere along the line fixed, and refreshed according to the current version of the file.)
If I don't hear back from you within a week or so, I'm planning to do an NMU with this patch, to fix the RC bug. -- Daniel Schepler
