Package: src:emacs24 Version: 24.5+1-7.1 Severity: serious Dear maintainer:
I tried to build this package in stretch with "dpkg-buildpackage -A" (which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it) but it failed: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [...] debian/rules build-indep dh build-indep --parallel debian/rules override_dh_testdir make[1]: Entering directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/emacs24-24.5+1' dh_testdir debian/emacsVER.postinst make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/emacs24-24.5+1' dh_update_autotools_config -i -O--parallel debian/rules override_dh_auto_configure make[1]: Entering directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/emacs24-24.5+1' dh_testdir debian/emacsVER.postinst ./autogen.sh Checking whether you have the necessary tools...

[ If you need a full build log, just say so and I will include it ] I guess, but I don't really know, that the same fix that worked for emacs25 should work here as well. Thanks.
