I proposed many times dh_configure to debhelper maintainer but never got a reply. I fucked up many times the my packages before using it (I have compatibility symlinks like /usr/local/bin/perl and /usr/bin/sendmail and configure picks up them...).
Another problem is that e.g. if the build host has not gpg installed then gpg support will not be compiled in... #!/bin/bash -e # # Tell GNU configure standard paths for some programs. # # These variables are used by AC_PATH_PROG(S) macros. # Export a sane path. export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:." export CC=cc export GPG=/usr/bin/gpg export ISPELL=/usr/bin/ispell export PGP=/usr/bin/pgp export PGPK=/usr/bin/pgpk export SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail export PERL=/usr/bin/perl exec ./configure ${1+"$@"} -- ciao, Marco
