Bug#790936: gnome-common: please depend on autoconf-archive instead of shipping AX_ namespaced macros

Package: gnome-common
Version: 3.14.0-1
Severity: important

As part of the upstream effort to kill off gnome-common in favour of
the non-GNOME-specific autoconf-archive, some macros from gnome-common
have moved into autoconf-archive.

Specifically,

/usr/share/aclocal/ax_check_enable_debug.m4
/usr/share/aclocal/ax_code_coverage.m4

are in autoconf-archive (>= 20141015).

gnome-common should stop shipping these (in recent versions there's a
configure option to not do so), and instead depend on autoconf-archive;
autoconf-archive should gain Breaks/Replaces on older gnome-common.

Regards,
