That's the intent of the last sentence of the tag description: windlord:~> lintian-info -t outdated-autotools-helper-file N: outdated-autotools-helper-file N: N: The referenced file has a time stamp older than June of 2006 and the N: package does not build-depend on autotools-dev or automake and N: therefore apparently does not update it. This usually means that the N: source package will not build correctly on AVR32, for which a Debian N: port is currently in progress, and may not support other newer N: architectures. N: N: Read /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz (from the N: autotools-dev package) for information on how to fix this problem. N: cdbs will automatically update these files if autotools-dev is N: installed during build, but the build dependency on autotools-dev is N: still necessary.
