Source: automake-1.16
Version: 1:1.16.5-1.3
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Please drop the unused libtool-bin build dependency. It was formerly
used by tests, but no longer is. I compared both build artifacts and
build logs from a build with and without this dependency. I'm attaching
a patch for your convenience.
