Source: deskmenu
Version: 1.4.5
Tags: patch
User: [email protected]
Usertags: ftcbfs

deskmenu fails to cross build from source, because it does not pass
--host to ./configure. The easiest way of fixing that is using
dh_auto_configure. The attached patch implements that.

After doing so, deskmenu continues to fail, because it contains a
broken, outdated, embedded copy of AM_PATH_GTK_2_0. Please remove your
copy in favour of the fixed upstream version. Alternatively, update it
and register it with the security tracker. This part comes without a
patch, because the bug is already fixed. You just happen to have copied
the bug.
