Quite recently, lsdvd started to fail to build from source. On December
3rd, it still built and now it fails. The relevant log part is:

| checking for -Wdate-time -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 option for large files... none 
needed
| ./configure: line 4626: syntax error near unexpected token `DVDREAD,'
| ./configure: line 4626: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(DVDREAD, dvdread >= 4.1.3)'
|         tail -v -n \+0 config.log
| ==> config.log <==

Evidently, PKG_CHECK_MODULES was not substituted by autoreconf. The
source for this macro resides in pkgconf. Once adding pkgconf to
Build-depends, lsdvd builds again. I guess that one of its dependencies
dropped a dependency on pkgconf.

    sed -i -e '/^Build-Depends:/a\ pkgconf,' debian/control
