Bug#526424: gerris: missing file 'm4.awk

[Stephane Popinet]

Package: gerris
Version: 0.9.2+darcs081022-dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal


I have had a look at your debian packaging of Gerris and I believe
there may be a problem. In order to implement the "GfsDefine" macro
keyword, the gerris executable calls m4 and awk on the input parameter
file. It also uses a 'm4.awk' file which is normally installed in
$prefix/lib/gerris/m4.awk. Is there any reason why this file is not
part of your current debian package?

In order to support this feature, I believe the following steps would
be necessary:

1- package usr/lib/gerris/m4.awk
2- make gerris depend on m4 and awk
