Package: autoconf-archive
Version: 20090426-1
Severity: important

I've been using the package on lenny without any problems and recently
tried it on squeeze only to find weird bugs with some of the AX_BOOST
macros.  I finally found that, for example, AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM looks
for the library files with:

  ls $BOOSTLIBDIR/libboost_filesystem*.{so,a}*

Now that dash is the default system shell on Debian (and a question
during the installation asks whether you want to make it the default
system shell with a default answer of yes), that results in

  $ ls /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem*.{so,a}*
  ls: cannot access /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem*.{so,a}*: No such file
or directory

The same with, e.g., bash works just fine.

  $ ls /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem*.{so,a}*
  /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem-mt.a
  /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem-mt.so
  /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.a
  /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so
  /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so.1.42.0

I am aware of the following macros being affected by this:

  AX_BOOST_FILESYSTEM
  AX_BOOST_SERIALIZATION
  AX_BOOST_UNIT_TEST_FRAMEWORK

FWIW, the AX_BOOST_PROGRAM_OPTIONS does not expose this problem.
