$ tar ztvf cameleon_1.1+cvs.20021009.orig.tar.gz | grep configure -rwxr-xr-x guesdon/cristal 43511 2002-08-26 11:42:25 cameleon-snapshot/configure -rw-r--r-- guesdon/cristal 6068 2002-08-26 11:42:26 cameleon-snapshot/configure.in [...] The configure script is older than configure.in ;) A workaround is to touch configure in debian/rules before running make, but there may be other timestamp problems.
