It's just the opposite of a trap; it's a further safety measure. It arranges that, *even if* an autotools update is accidentally run, then everything will still work. The intention is not that an autotools update *should* be run - I agree that that is often risky - but to provide insurance in case it is.
In the event that an autotools update is not run, the debian/rules change has no effect. -- python-gobject in hardy-updates on sparc misbuilt only for python2.5 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/309674 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
