Hi again Chris (sorry for the sparing of your time, I tried to upload in order to make you aware of the fix.
However your time might be not spared, since the fix I did is a little bit different. -eval static_datadir="$datadir" +eval eval static_datadir="$datadir" instead of your +old_val="" +until test "$static_datadir" = "$old_val"; do + old_val="$static_datadir" + eval static_datadir="$static_datadir" +done do you think I should apply your patch? (I can upload with the patch on 799755 even if it doesn't fix the issue for me) cheers, Gianfranco Il Domenica 27 Settembre 2015 16:12, Chris Lamb <[email protected]> ha scritto: Package: docbook2x Version: 0.8.8-11 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hi, Related to #800142, please re-enable autoreconfing. Just "dropping stuff" because it's broken doesn't seem like a good idea from a QA point of view. Autoreconfing is best practice as it can automatically fix a bunch of porting and archive-wide support for stuff (eg. LFS). It also ensures a package can be genuinely rebuilt from its sources. Patch attached. (Note the extra change required to ./configure.ac to prevent #800142 re-appearing.) Regards, -- ,''`. : :' : Chris Lamb `. `'` [email protected] / chris-lamb.co.uk `-
