A problem with svn-buildpackage and ./configure

[Mats Erik Andersson <mats.andersson@gisladisker.se>]

Hello,

I would need an advice or two on the use of svn-buildpackage.
The rules file on which the package stands, contains a clause

   build: build-stamp
   build-stamp:
      dh_testdir
      ./configure --bindir=/usr/games
      $(MAKE)
      touch $@

This is as it should when building a package inside the source
directory with injected ./debian/ directory, the standard setting
on which 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot' acts.

However, when using 'svn-buildpackage -rfakeroot' this does not work
any longer, since the rooted path fails:

      debian/rules build
    dh_testdir
    ./configure --bindir=/usr/games
    make: ./configure: Command not found
    make: *** [build-stamp] Error 127

What step am I overlooking?

In need to get this working in order to submit my release candidate
for nettoe_1.2.1-1.


Kind regards,
