Bug#377466: Please stop Build-Depending on automake
Package: libax25
Version: 0.0.11-3
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
The automake maintainer is working towards reclaiming
the automake package name, which currently rests on
automake1.4, the oldest version of automake. Your package,
libax25, Build-Depends on automake, hence this bug
report. Please see http://wiki.debian.org/AutomakeTransition
for more information on this transition.
It appears that you package does not use the automake
package in the build process. This is normal, as most
package do not require automake at build time. The
attached patch removes the build dependency.
Thanks,
James
