Package: automake Version: 1:1.11.2-1 Severity: normal In short ... new upstream release is available with lots of bug fixes. automake-1.11.2b released Jan 25.
I encountered FTBFS with my ibus package recently while I tried to upload my new improved package. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=657828 Certainly, we can work around but this is generic problem upstream has fixed in their new upstream. In my case, folowing changes were needed :-) (from Changelog) 2012-01-03 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattar...@gmail.com> Merge branch 'maint' into branch-1.11 * maint: install: pkglibexec_SCRIPTS is a valid prefix/primary combination coverage: expose automake bug#10128 progs, libs: implement EXTRA_foo_DEPENDENCIES tests: fix spurious failures in 'pr300*.test' 2012-01-03 Stefano Lattarini <stefano.lattar...@gmail.com> install: pkglibexec_SCRIPTS is a valid prefix/primary combination It makes little sense for `libexec_SCRIPTS' to be accepted as valid while `pkglibexec_SCRIPTS' is not. So fix this inconsistency by explicitly allowing `pkglibexec_SCRIPTS' as well. It is worth noting that the inconsistency has been there for a long time, but only the quite recent commit `v1.11-373-g9ca6326' "Warnings about primary/prefix mismatch fixed and extended" has made it noisy enough to be noticed. * automake.in (handle_scripts): Also list `pkglibexec' among the prefixes valid for the `SCRIPTS' primary. * doc/automake.texi (Scripts): Likewise. * tests/primary-prefix-valid-couples.test: Update. * THANKS: Likewise. * NEWS: Likewise. Reported by Dennis Schridde on the automake list: <http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2012-01/msg00002.html> It looks like there are several other bug fixes which seems to be applicable to some of the frecent bug reports, too.
