Bug#639691: nfs-utils: Needs versioned build-dep on libnfsidmap-dev >= 0.24
Package: nfs-utils
Version: 1.2.4-1
Severity: normal
The upstream m4/autofoo only enables nfsidmapd related stuff if it
finds certain api functions available, which after some investigation
appears to have been introduced in 0.24.
This will otherwise cause FTBFS's for anyone wanting to backport to an
older debian/ubuntu release, as I've just found out, due to commit 3d3bc354
which unconditionally tries to install manpages and binaries for it.
I suggest eitehr adding the strict build-deps, or alternatively making
the dh logic a bit smarter for whether it should attempt to install them.
