Package: libtar
Version: 1.2.11-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu jaunty ubuntu-patch
Hi,
Your package failed to build in Ubuntu where we have newer versions
of the autotools and libtool. Changes mean that the system used to
run autoconf is now broken.
A more robust solution is to call autoreconf, which ensures that
the tools are called in the correct way.
In order to do this when not using automake (and hence aclocal)
you have to create an aclocal.m4 in the root of the package, and
include the macros that you want. The attached patch does this.
In order to make it work you will have to copy in libtool.m4,
ltoptions.m4, ltversion.m4 and ltsugar.m4 to the autoconf directory.
Thanks,
James
