Hi sorry for stepping in :)
> - added autotools-dev to build-depends. > - added dh_autotools-dev_updateconfig and > dh_autotools-dev_restoreconfig to fix FTBFS on new architectures > such as ppc64el. Closes: #759453, #535842 what about using autoreconf? it should fix the issue in a better(TM) way :) https://wiki.debian.org/Autoreconf BTW converting the rules file in the new dh calls seems to be trivial too ;) (I'm not requesting you to change anything, I might do also a subsequent upload when I bump debhelper compat level, and refactor the packaging to be more easily maintainable) thanks for caring you both :) G.
