false. the bug has been open since a year, it has become RC since Aug 2021 only. > I know that the proposed patch is not elegant at all (really hacky in terms of > macro processing), and I understand that upstream will be moving away from > autotools in future releases thus applying this patch might not be the ideal > choice. However, having this package FTBFS in the archive forever is > definitely not a good choice either.
