Package: src:blt
Version: 2.5.3+dfsg-1
Severity: wishlist
User: [email protected]
Usertags: rebootstrap

The blt package uses a relatively old version of autoconf and does not
regenerate configure from configure.in during build. As a result it uses
a very old implementation of AC_CHECK_SIZEOF that does not work well
with cross compiling. As a result a cross configure run without setting
CONFIG_SITE results in:

| checking size of int... 0
| checking size of long... 0
| checking size of long long... 0
| checking size of void *... 0

This is unfortunate in various ways:
 * configure succeeds without a mention that things went wrong
 * The first indication that something failed is a linker error.
 * These values are computable without executing host-arch code. More
   recent autotools do that.

A fixed configure will use ac_fn_c_compute_int to determine these
values.

I understand that making the current configure.in work with more recent
autotools requires some work, but at some point this is necessary for
supporting new ports anyway. Thanks for considering.

Helmut

     twice in a row (closes: #791601).

     when dpkg-buildpackage -A is called for building the architecture-
     independent packages only (closes: #805999).
   * debian/patches/autoreconf.patch: fix autotools input for
     compatibility with recent autoconf.  Thanks to Helmut Grohne

   * debian/patches/pkgindex.patch: correct this patch to patch the
     configure.in source, not the generated configure script.
   * debian/patches/install.patch: fix the distclean targets.
   * debian/patches/*: remove patching of autogenerated configure
   * Drop debian/rules override_dh_clean target, which gets it wrong.
