Package: cdbs Version: 0.4.56 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch I suggest adding --add-missing to automake args, unless user explicitly disables it by setting DEB_AUTOMAKE_ARGS herself.
--add-missing just causes automake to add missing files, so it should be harmless in every situation, and can be helpful when processing code that doesn't include those (e.g. autoconf might later fail due to missing install-sh or so). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-libre2-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ca_AD.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ca_AD.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages cdbs depends on: ii debhelper 7.2.16 helper programs for debian/rules Versions of packages cdbs recommends: ii autotools-dev 20090427.1 Update infrastructure for config.{ Versions of packages cdbs suggests: ii devscripts 2.10.50 scripts to make the life of a Debi pn doc-base <none> (no description available) -- no debconf information
