Package: dh-autoreconf
Version: 3
Severity: normal
The man page for dh_autoreconf has this in the usage:
[ program -- params ]
But if you pass -- and then parameters, they don't get seen by the
program. This appears to be because of the way debhelper handles those
extra arguments, and the attached patch seems to fix it.
