It's caused by 80c955221e83327efb984845f59648678c729978. boinc has an empty override_dh_autoreconf-indep target. Before this commit we would run dh_autoreconf -Nboinc - because the else branch inside the foreach loop would put the package name in @rest and -Nboinc in @options which causes the calling code to call dh_autoreconf. Now, because we skip the foreach loop entirely due to the empty target, the parameters are never constructed and we simply skip over dh_autoreconf. Unless you have a better idea, I think that commit should be reverted. The loop is still required for empty -arch and -indep targets to construct the -N options. -- Iain Lane [ i...@orangesquash.org.uk ] Debian Developer [ la...@debian.org ] Ubuntu Developer [ la...@ubuntu.com ]
