Hi, In #882538, Helmut pointed that outguess[1] has a configure file[2] generated by a missing configure.in. He considers that configure, an interpreted script (shell), has no source code because the following lines:
# Generated automatically using autoconf version 2.12 [...] # Any additions from configure.in: [...] The script also has a notice: # This configure script is free software; the Free Software Foundation # gives unlimited permission to copy, distribute and modify it. IMHO, the configure script can't be regenerated from a configure.ac or configure.in but it can be modified to work if it is necessary. It is similar to traditional configure file, made by hand. I don't see a real problem here. However, Pabs agrees with Helmut here[3]. I still have doubts about if this situation is a DFSG violation and I need more opinions. Thanks a lot in advance.
