Please note that patch doesn't necessarily has a connotation on how
it was generated, just see the Jargon File entry (sense 3). Your
lecture indicates otherwise ...

My apologies if you felt lectured to. Your original email *did* have those
connotations - Methinks this FTBFS occurs due to unnecessarily applying the
0.70-1 patches... - and that's all I was responding to.

 Methinks this FTBFS occurs due to unnecessarily applying the 0.70-1
 patches to img/Makefile.in, Makefile.in, aclocal.m4 and configure to
 0.71 as well. Apparently upstream took care, so those simply aren't
 needed anymore.
 When dropping these patches as well as the touching in debian/rules
 the package builds just fine (tested on i386, amd64, ia64 and s390).
 
 Please find attached the corresponding interdiff. If I won't hear from
 you I'll probably NMU on Monday.

Sorry for the delay on this. I've just uploaded -2. I didn't have a whole
lot of spare time last week and pbuilder wasn't cooperating.

I don't want to:

* Use upstream autotools (v1.4!)
* Depend on automake

I do want to:

* Be able to change autotools-related things in my source package
* Respond to (or just plain avoid) FTBFS bugs about out-of-date stuff
* Conform to /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz

It looks like I was able to achieve these goals by running:

autoreconf --force --install

On the source tree before building.

Note to Florian: those are only patches from your perspective. All of
those files are automatically generated by autoreconf/aclocal/autoconf/
automake/etc. None of them are written by hand (or *shudder* merged into new
version source trees).

Package: mtr
Version: 0.71-1
Severity: serious

Hi,
mtr_0.71-1 FTBFS with error:

make -C mtr
make[1]: Entering directory `/build/buildd/mtr-0.71/mtr'
cd ..  \
  /bin/sh /build/buildd/mtr-0.71/missing --run automake-1.7 --gnu  Makefile
/build/buildd/mtr-0.71/missing: line 46: automake-1.7: command not found
WARNING: `automake-1.7' is needed, and you do not seem to have it handy on your
 system.  You might have modified some files without having the
 proper tools for further handling them.  Check the `README' file,
 it often tells you about the needed prerequirements for installing
 this package.  You may also peek at any GNU archive site, in case
 some other package would contain this missing `automake-1.7' program.
make[1]: *** [../Makefile.in] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/buildd/mtr-0.71/mtr'

Which make it quite clear it needs automake-1.7. Please add it as a
dependency. Thanks,
Roberto
