Package: lintian Severity: wishlist From [1]: - Automake 2.0 will drop support for the long-deprecated 'configure.in' name for the Autoconf input file. You are advised to start using the recommended name 'configure.ac' instead, ASAP. I would suggest the following plan for Debian & lintian: Introduce a pedantic warning about this as soon as possible. Progressively upgrade it over the jessie release to a warning. Once automake 2.0 hits Debian upgrade it to an error. The rationale here is that build systems should be rebuildable by users out of the box without messing around. After a transition period it should become a non-overridable error. 1. https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2013-05/msg00049.html -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
