Package: dh-autoreconf
Version: 16
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
Please consider adding support for packages which make use of XDT_* features,
using xdt-autogen.
As it stands, any Xfce package using dh 10 or above must override dh_autoreconf
with 'NOCONFIGURE=1 dh_autoreconf xdt-autogen' which is not known by all DDs
and may lead to bugs such as #870420.
An functional example patch inline below.
