[Pkg-mythtv-maintainers] Bug#751293: twolame: [ftbfs] use dh-autoreconf in order to build on new architectures

[Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo]

Control: tags -1 + pending

Hi,

The unability to compile this package is a problem for ports being
added recently (OpenRISC/or1k, ppc64el, ...) since they don't have
older versions to rely on, and many packages depend on them as
build-dependencies to compile, so this package (among many others) is
blocking a good portion of the archive to compile cleanly for these
ports.

There is also a bug report for the long-standing release goal (from a
few years/releases ago) to remove .la files.

I am preparing a NMU (diff attached) to fix the bugs above (see
headers), uploaded immediately as per guidelines in [1] -- since even
if not Release Critical (yet), this package is needed to compile many
other packages in several architectures that want to be part of the
next release (so it can become RC soon), the package seems to be not
very actively maintained (unfixed lintian errors and warnings, no
replies at all to open bug reports), there are no indications of fixes
being worked on for the open bug reports (one of them from more than 2
years ago, the other 2 months), and above all the changes introduced
are fairly minimal, not intrusive and easily reversable if needed.

Please let me know if I can be of any assistance, you want me to
revert the changes, etc.


Cheers.
