Control: tags -1 + patch I tried to reproduce the problem in sid, and I see it too. The makefile in question contain this fragment, and the typo is in the lines starting with 'dnl':
#AM_CFLAGS = -fsigned-char dnl sysconfrcdir = $(sysconfdir)/rc.d/init.d dnl dist_sysconfrc_SCRIPTS = readahead_early readahead_later dnl initdir = $(sysconfdir)/init dnl dist_init_DATA = readahead-collector.conf readahead-disable-services.conf readahead.conf # Tell versions [3.59,3.63) of GNU make to not export all variables. The source of these lines is the scripts/Makefile.am file. I guess automake changed the last few years, and no longer accept m4 comments in the Makefile.am files. The attached patch fixes the issue by changing 'dnl' to '#' in the makefile, thus not depending m4 for commenting out the lines, but instead telling make to ignore them. Should I NMU to fix it, or will you handle it yourself? This bug will cause readahead-fedora to disappear from Jessie in a few days, so it is a bit urgent to fix it. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
