[Santiago Vila]

Package: src:libsmpp34
Version: 1.12.0-2
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in buster but it failed:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[...]
 debian/rules build-arch
I: libsmpp34_1.12.0
dh build-arch --no-parallel --with autoreconf
   dh_update_autotools_config -a
   dh_autoreconf -a
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, 'aux_config'.
libtoolize: copying file 'aux_config/ltmain.sh'
libtoolize: Consider adding 'AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS([m4])' to configure.ac,
libtoolize: and rerunning libtoolize and aclocal.
libtoolize: Consider adding '-I m4' to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The build was made with "dpkg-buildpackage -B" in my autobuilder.
Most probably, it also fails here in reproducible builds:

https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rb-pkg/unstable/amd64/libsmpp34.html

where you can get a full build log if you need it.

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and affects,
so that this is still visible in the BTS web page for this package.

Thanks.
