Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in buster but it failed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
 debian/rules build-arch
dh build-arch --with python2,python3
   dh_update_autotools_config -a
   dh_autoreconf -a
   debian/rules override_dh_auto_configure
make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
# Nasty hack. why is it necessary?
cp /usr/share/automake-1.15/install-sh ./install-sh
cp: cannot stat '/usr/share/automake-1.15/install-sh': No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [debian/rules:51: override_dh_auto_configure] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
make: *** [debian/rules:15: build-arch] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build-arch subprocess returned exit 
status 2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The build was made with "dpkg-buildpackage -B" in my autobuilder.
Most probably, it also fails here in reproducible builds:

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/newt.html

where you can get a full build log if you need it.

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and 
affects,
so that this is still visible in the BTS web page for this package.

Thanks.
