Package: dh-autoreconf
Version: 13
Severity: normal
dh-autoreconf Depends on automake | automaken. On all buildds except
experimental, the first alternative is preferred, and builds will happen
with the current (highest available) version of automake, currently 1.15
in stretch and 1.14.1 in jessie.
Unfortunately, the aspcud resolver used for experimental buildds does
not assign a lower score to less-preferred alternatives, in this case
packages that provide automaken. The result is that about half the time
automake1.11 is chosen instead. Upstreams do not typically test with
such old versions, even if their packages are theoretically meant to
work with them, and the typical result is a FTBFS (or, worse, a silent
mis-build).
flatpak 0.8.4-1 is a good example. Its configure.ac claims to work
with automake1.11, but in fact it doesn't:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=flatpak&ver=0.8.4-1&suite=experimental
So far I've worked around this in flatpak, glib2.0 and ostree by
explicitly build-depending on automake, but there are probably lots more
packages affected, and I think it would be better to address this globally
by changing dh-autoreconf's dependency.
(I'm also going to open a buildd.debian.org bug to investigate whether
the aspcud rules can be adjusted to prefer or even require the
most-preferred alternative.)
