Package: shadow
Version: 1:4.0.18.1-1
Severity: serious
Justification: no longer builds from source
Dear shadow maintainers,
Since the upgrade of gettext to 0.15, shadow fails to build from source.

]; then cd . && aclocal-1.7 $m4; fi

A patch is currently worked on. And the next release should be released
soon.
The plan is to use automake 1.9. This needs to change debian/control and
the variables DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_* in debian/rules.
In po/Makefile.in.in, MKINSTALLDIRS also needs to be set to "@install_sh@
-d" (maybe upstream should update the Makefile.in.in file in later
releases.
What I still don't know is whether the resulting package will depend on
gettext 0.15 and automake 1.9.
Kind Regards,
