 Attached patch (from upstream, r82784) should fix the problem.

 Thanks for the patch!, ... but unfortunately it is not enough (hence I'm
 temporarily untagging this bug with patch).

 First of all the patch should be placed in the sequence before 50,
 otherwise it will arrive too late. Placing it at 49 works fine.

 Then, even with this patch, build fails with a different error, reported
 below:

  configure.ac:177: the top level
  libtoolize: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([../m4]) conflicts with ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS=-I 
 m4.
  autoreconf: libtoolize failed with exit status: 1
  make: *** [autotools-stamp] Error 1

A similar patch has been available for months and it was discussed in
the pkg-ace-devel mailing list. The patch is also available in svn
trunk and the 5.6.3 branch (it will be included in 5.6.3-6)

http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/pkg-ace/trunk/debian/patches/93-hack-to-fix-libtoolize.dpatch?revision=624view=markup

Please join the pkg-ace-devel mailing list if you want to help.

This seems to be a bug in MPC, probably due to bashisms.

I already have a patch for this (and it was discussed in
pkg-ace-devel, ace-users and probably ace-devel too) a few weeks ago.
I have not committed the patch yet, though, but I will probably commit
that patch (and a few more) this week.

I'm trying to convince my employer allow me to maintain ACE in company
time, including finishing the on-going work to package 5.7.4. I'll
have an answer this week.

Once more: please join pkg-ace-devel if you want to help. You are
providing patches we already have.

I only want to see the release critical bug fixed for now, I am not

Yeah, it's not in pkg-ace-devel but the general ace-users mailing list.

FYI, doing s/fidone/fi done/g in configure does not fix the error I mentioned
earlier.

Sorry, I thought you were talking about the other issue. I provided a
patch for the libtoolize issue in April:

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ace/+bug/356667

However, I can't find any reference of my sending that to Debian :-/

I wasn't talking about that error either (or rather, I came up with the
same patch and sent it earlier).

I meant this:

checking for bsearch... yes
../ACE_wrappers/configure: line 37527: syntax error near unexpected
token `fi'
../ACE_wrappers/configure: line 37527: `fi'
make: *** [configure-stamp] Error 2

Please don't. I am currently busy but I will have a look at ace RC bugs
this week-end.


Please prove me wrong in wanting this package removed from testing and
get the package fixed and maintained properly again, TIA.


Will do.

ACE is a big beast and is undermaintained because the Debian
maintainer (Thomas Girard, the other two seem inactive) is too busy at
the moment.

I tried to take it over but the current packaging is, IMHO, very
difficult to get to work. Too contrived.

To fix this bug, the first thing I would try is moving to a new
version of ACE (as of this writing, latest is 5.7.4), which has no
trouble with current versions of autotools. Problem is ACE covers so
many different things it is very difficult for a single person to know
how to properly package this (I, for once, only have experience with
the pure-ACE stuff, no TAO or anything else). For instance, there are
new libraries since the latest packaged version in Debian (5.6.3),
which I am now sure how to package (see
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-ace-devel/2009-May/001819.html
).

If someone with experience in TAO and the non-pure-ACE stuff is
willing to help me, I could get ACE in shape in a reasonable amount of
time (yes, this is a call for help, please contact me).
