Package: global
Version: 4.8.6-2
Hi,
When I tried to build global with dpkg-buildpackage, I got this:
configure.ac:167: error: m4_popdef: undefined macro: AC_Dest
autoconf/status.m4:848: AC_CONFIG_FILES is expanded from...
configure.ac:167: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal-1.9: autom4te failed with exit status: 1
make[1]: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/global-4.8.6'
make: *** [build-stamp] Error 2
Then I upgraded my m4 package to 1.4.7-1, and now it builds with no problems.
Maybe the bug is in autoconf (mine is 2.59a-3) instead of global... But
looking at autoconf stuff makes my head explode so investigating this is
left as an exercise for the maintainer.

Since this package built previously, and builds with current versions
of its dependencies, I think we can safely assume a transient bug in
one of them. If someone wants to track the version and package and
reassign this for the record, feel free. If the bug is gone, its
fairly academic though.
Cheers,
Ron
