Cool!
I've uploaded my changes to SVN, please have a look at them when you
have some spare time, and fix whatever you think could be improved.
I'll upload it to Debian when I get the green light from you :)

Greetings,
Miry
  
Hi Miriam,

Thanks for your work on 7kaa ! Especially for the use of the new config chain with autotools, which I know only a little. I had a look at your work and I have a couple of questions. I am still shy to change something a DD did, therefore I didn't commit anything :
* the clean target depends on the config target. Is it standard ? It makes my usual command line to build with pdebuild fail.
* I read carefully /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz which I didn't know. As I understand it, their advice is to rerun all the autotools before config (method 1). I also understood that the files generated by autotools should be purged by the clean target and should not even be in the orig tarball. Again, I never packaged anything using autotools and I am quite new to this so correct me if I'm wrong.
* Last, there seems to be dh_autotools-dev_restoreconfig and  dh_autotools-dev_updateconfig to copy the config.* files. Isn't it better (more robust) to use these ?

Cheers,
Bertrand
