That error is common when configure is generated using out-of-date config.guess and config.sub. The ones that come with the package are, in fact, old.
This package used to run dh_autotools-dev_updateconfig and dh_autotools-dev_restoreconfig, which worked because it only updates those files. They were replaced by dh_autoreconf and dh_autoreconf_clean, which should update them, but does not run flawlessly. I think something is wrong with the m4 macros but I am not sure what. There are errors when running dh_autoreconf alone. # dh_autoreconf libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, `.'. libtoolize: copying file `./ltmain.sh' libtoolize: putting macros in AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR, `m4'. libtoolize: copying file `m4/libtool.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/ltoptions.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/ltsugar.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/ltversion.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/lt~obsolete.m4' libtoolize: Consider adding `-I m4' to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am. autoheader: warning: missing template: HAVE_UMODE_T autoheader: Use AC_DEFINE([HAVE_UMODE_T], [], [Description]) autoheader: warning: missing template: HAVE___PSINT_T autoheader: warning: missing template: HAVE___PSUNSIGNED_T autoheader: warning: missing template: HAVE___U32 autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoheader failed with exit status: 1 dh_autoreconf: autoreconf -f -i returned exit code 1 I will keep working on it, but all I will be able to do if I get to a conclusion is send a patch here. Thus it will have to be dealt with by the maintainers anyway.
