Package: xsane
Version: 0.999-5
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Dear Maintainer,

this bug report is closely related to #852840.

I downloaded the source of xsane:

apt-get source xsane
mk-build-deps xsane
sudo dpkg -i xsane-build-deps_0.999-5_all.deb
sudo aptitude => fix the broken xsane-build-deps package by 
                 installing all dependencies

Then I tried to compile it on my machine:

cd xsane-0.999
./configure

The configure step failed with the following message:

checking for sane-config... no
checking for SANE - version >= 1.0.0... no
*** The sane-config script installed by SANE could not be found
*** If SANE was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the SANE_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to sane-config.
...
ERROR: SANE-1.0.0 or newer is needed for compiling xsane
     - if you installed SANE as rpm make sure you also included
       sane-devel

The underlying problem is already fixed in #852840 by patching configure.in,
and I can work around the problem by executing

autoreconf -f -i

before running 

./configure

As I understand debian source packages, the autoreconf thing should not be
necessary for building a package.

The error still exists in V 0.999-6.

Thank you, Johann

This is right only if you use the Debian build systems sbuild[1] or
pbuilder[2]. Both start autoreconf automatically.

If you want to build the package manually, all required commands must
also be executed manually.
