Bug#851868: patch - fix out-of-tree build (e.g. 'make distcheck') with automake >= 1.15

[Vlad Orlov]

Source: intltool
Version: 0.51.0-3
Severity: important
Tags: stretch sid patch


This had been reported upstream (and for Ubuntu) at [1].

Out-of-tree builds, including 'make distcheck', are broken with automake >= 1.15.
Because of this, various projects that make use of intltool had to add weird
workarounds, as can be seen at [2] or [3].

Patch for this issue had been submitted at LP bug. Debdiff with the patch is in
the attachment. Please consider applying it in Stretch (Jessie has automake 1.14
so intltool is not affected there).
