forwarded 579025 https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=113478&aid=3016381&group_id=13478 severity 579025 normal thanks
I have forwarded your bug report to upstream's bug tracker at sourceforge. I think this is an upstream bug and it should get fixed upstream. Fixing it in Debian would mean an undesirable deviation from upstream and force the sourceful uploads of 43 packages, including re-autoconf'ing. I don't think it's worth the effort, since currently no single package in Debian is actually affected by this bug (the default prefix for autotools is /usr/local, so every package in Debian needs to run configure with at least --prefix=/usr, which hides the bug) and the workaround is quite simple (e.g. run configure with --prefix=/usr/local, which is the default anyway). Hope you agree! - Fabian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
