That's the point, actually: If I build-depend on autoconf, I *cannot* know that it will actually build after the next update to autoconf, because most likely nobody will try it. When I provide a configure script in the source package it means, on the contrary, that I *have* tried it and therefore has some kind of evidence that it will probably work for other people too. -- Henning Makholm "That's okay.
