gnome-common_3.14.0-2 has been uploaded today, which drops the two
macros and added a versioned dependency on autoconf-archive.

Please prepare an upload for autoconf-archive adding
Breaks: gnome-common (<< 3.14.0-2)
Replaces: gnome-common (<< 3.14.0-2)

While we don't have plans to create a backport for gnome-common, feel
free to include the ~ in the version.

Cheers,
Michael
