They're only updated at build time if autotools-dev is installed, which I don't currently have a Build-Depends: on. Unless it got snuck into build-essential while I wasn't looking :). But certainly, if you built with autotools installed, they would be updated. My change to configure is already in upstream CVS; I missed it while chasing down an issue with Makefile dependencies. The next release will have it. > The problem actually comes from the following: > | AC_SEARCH_LIBS(res_mkquery, resolv) > > It looks like it turns out to ???none required??? on the architectures > with the FTBFS, so there's a missing -lresolv (explaining while some > related symbols are unresolved -- oh the irony).

Okay, I believe a similar bug is fixed in CVS; I'll investigate that. Thanks for checking out the config.sub/guess for me. -- Mike Markley <m...@markley.org> The word "genius" isn't applicable in football.
