Severity: serious
Tags: patch
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Hello, jailer failed to build in Ubuntu because of broken symlink. install-sh
points to /usr/share/automake/install-sh, which is not present in automake
package. The build fails with the following error:
dh_testdir
../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=\${prefix}/share/man
--infodir=\${prefix}/share/info --sysconfdir=/etc
creating cache ./config.cache
configure: error: can not find install-sh or install.sh in . ./.. ./../..
make: *** [build-stamp] Error 1
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2
This also affects sid, and is reproducible with pbuilder.
Full log for Ubuntu can be found at
https://launchpadlibrarian.net/72709571/buildlog_ubuntu-oneiric-i386.jailer_0.4-16_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz
To fix this for Ubuntu, I used dh_autoreconf as a very nonintrusive change.
The patch is attached.
