You actually need to use autoreconf -fi, otherwise you get things like this, seen in the Ubuntu ppc64el bootstrap: configure.ac:16: error: required file './compile' not found configure.ac:16: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'compile' autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1 But it's better to just use dh_autoreconf, which is more complete than most of the previous ad-hoc methods. I applied this on top of Steve and Dimitri's changes, which hopefully you can massage into the Debian package if and when you apply all this: diff -Nru acct-6.5.5/debian/changelog acct-6.5.5/debian/changelog --- acct-6.5.5/debian/changelog 2013-09-19 16:25:28.000000000 +0100 +++ acct-6.5.5/debian/changelog 2013-12-18 12:19:44.000000000 +0000 @@ -1,3 +1,9 @@ +acct (6.5.5-1ubuntu5) trusty; urgency=medium + + * Use dh-autoreconf rather than various other less-complete methods. + + -- Colin Watson <cjwat...@ubuntu.com> Wed, 18 Dec 2013 12:19:43 +0000 + acct (6.5.5-1ubuntu4) saucy; urgency=low * Fix FTBFS with new texinfo. diff -Nru acct-6.5.5/debian/control acct-6.5.5/debian/control --- acct-6.5.5/debian/control 2012-12-17 23:47:07.000000000 +0000 +++ acct-6.5.5/debian/control 2013-12-18 12:17:34.000000000 +0000 @@ -3,8 +3,7 @@ Priority: optional Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> XSBC-Original-Maintainer: Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre <mathieu...@gmail.com> -Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7), autotools-dev, autoconf, automake, - libtool, texi2html, texinfo +Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 7), dh-autoreconf, texi2html, texinfo Standards-Version: 3.9.1 Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/acct/ diff -Nru acct-6.5.5/debian/rules acct-6.5.5/debian/rules --- acct-6.5.5/debian/rules 2012-12-18 02:54:16.000000000 +0000 +++ acct-6.5.5/debian/rules 2013-12-18 12:17:10.000000000 +0000 @@ -12,24 +12,18 @@ dh_testdir dh_testroot rm -f build-stamp - rm -f config.guess config.sub [ ! -f Makefile ] || $(MAKE) distclean rm -f accounting.html rm -f accounting.info + dh_autoreconf_clean dh_clean config.status: configure dh_testdir -ifneq "$(wildcard /usr/share/misc/config.sub)" "" - cp -f /usr/share/misc/config.sub config.sub -endif -ifneq "$(wildcard /usr/share/misc/config.guess)" "" - cp -f /usr/share/misc/config.guess config.guess -endif - autoreconf -f + dh_autoreconf ./configure $(CROSS) --prefix=/usr --mandir=\$${prefix}/share/man --infodir=\$${prefix}/share/info $(shell dpkg-buildflags --export=configure) build: build-stamp Thanks, -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
