Well, configure files are autogenerated, so that means the problem lies before that. Does that mean autotools generate incorrect configure files, or does that means that particular one is buggy? Or does that mean dash is definitely doing the wrong thing? It seems we have some other packages which will FTBFS with errors in configure too, and I guess a fully archive rebuild would exhibit quite some failures because of that. I'm not finger pointing, but is the dash change really legit? Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis
