Package: autoconf2.13
Version: 2.13-63
Severity: normal
Hello,
i think i found a bug in the debian/wrapper script for this package. I think
that
do_run_aclocal (line 295) will always fail in this check:
if ($uses_aclocal && -f 'Makefile.am')
because "uses_aclocal" is never set. This line seems to be the only one using
it.
When the check fails, Makefile.am will never be parsed.
This caused a configure.ac file to become unusable for me that needed to
generate an aclocal.m4 file from a local m4 directory (which wasn't used
because of the failed check).
Deinstalling the autoconf2.13 package enabled me to compile my source again.

This bug report is about the wrapper script formerly in the autoconf2.13
package. The latest version of the package does not contain any wrapper
script, thus it cannot have bugs, so I'm closing this one.
If you disagree, please do reopen the bug (with an explanation).
Thanks,
Ben.
