Bug#994933: please revert the changes in 2.69-3 and re-add the add-runstatedir backport



Package: autoconf2.69
Version: 2.69-3
Severity: important
Justification: breaking change, not in NEWS, makes draft packages FTBFS
Control: block 994770 by -1
Control: block 985563 by -1

Hi,

I'm working on packaging binutils-sh-elf, and I know of someone else
working on updating binutils-m68hc1x. We're trying to provide these
Binutils builds using the best practices recommended at
https://wiki.debian.org/PackagingLessCommonBinutilsTargets (which I
realize you did not write).

To avoid reinventing the wheel, our packages have been using Debhelper,
which passes --runstatedir via dh_auto_configure. The most recent
changelog entry doesn't indicate that the backport was dropped to
resolve any sort of bug, so could it please be reverted for the
buildability of our packages?

If this won't be reverted, feel free to mark it wontfix and close it.
