As people have said, get upstream to have up to date files. Not doing something like this is likely to get you nailed by the hppa guys or some other autobuilder. Of course, you can always delete those lines if you are satisfied that you can keep the files up to date yourself. And no, you don't have to build-depends autotools-dev, that's what the test for existence of file is for. But it is probably a good idea to anyway. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 Eye-Net Consulting http://www.eye-net.com.au/ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> MIEEE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Debian developer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
