Source: gbdfed Version: 1.6-4 Tags: patch User: debian-cr...@lists.debian.org Usertags: ftcbfs
gbdfed fails to cross build from source for two completely distinct reasons. 1. It ships a broken, outdated, embedded copy of PKG_CHECK_MODULES in aclocal.m4. Please remove this copy. Failing that, update it and register it with the security tracker. The actual bug has long been fixed in pkg-config and pkgconf. gbdfed just happens to ship a copy of the bug. 2. Use of AC_CHECK_FILE for build system files. The macro is only meant to be used for host system files and thus fails. Please use a simple test -e instead. I'm attaching a patch for your convenience.
