Public bug reported:
gkamus 1.0-0ubuntu7 fails to build in stonking:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gkamus/1.0-0ubuntu7/+build/32793444
test -z "/usr/bin" || .././install-sh -c -d ".../debian/tmp/usr/bin"
/bin/bash: line 1: .././install-sh: Permission denied
make[3]: *** [Makefile:236: install-binPROGRAMS] Error 126
The shipped (automake 1.11-era) configure hardcodes the accepted `mkdir
--version` outputs for its "thread-safe mkdir -p" check:
'mkdir (GNU coreutils) '* | 'mkdir (coreutils) '* | 'mkdir (fileutils)
'4.1*
With rust-coreutils providing mkdir, none of these match, so configure
falls back to `MKDIR_P = ./install-sh -c -d` (build log: "checking for a
thread-safe mkdir -p... ./install-sh -c -d"). install-sh (as well as
missing and depcomp) are mode 0664 in gkamus_1.0.orig.tar.gz, so the
install step fails.

- Possible fixes:
- - chmod +x install-sh missing depcomp before configure, and/or
- - regenerate the build system with autoreconf (the package is still on
debhelper compat 7 with --with autotools_dev, so modernising would be
worthwhile).
