Package: liblog4c3
Version: 1.2.4-2
Severity: important
File: /usr/share/doc/liblog4c3/copyright

Hello,

I am about to upload the current version of doxygen, before doing that I ran a quick scan of ~500 build-deps (https://salsa.debian.org/debian/doxygen/-/wikis/ratt_doxygen_1.9.4-1_amd64-partial) and found that this package was one of 4 that FTBFS.

The errors were:

    Output written on refman.dvi (90 pages, 336368 bytes).
    Transcript written on refman.log.
    latex_count=%(LATEX_COUNT) ; \

        do \
          echo "Rerunning latex...." ;\
          latex refman.tex ; \
          latex_count=`expr $latex_count - 1` ;\
        done
    /bin/sh: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected
    make[4]: *** [Makefile:30: refman.dvi] Error 2
