[Pkg-privacy-maintainers] Bug#976579: libgsecuredelete: FTBFS in debian (patch)`

[Clément Hermann]

Hi,

libgsecuredelete currently fails to build in Debian: see
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=976579.

This is due to some automake strangeness: generated valac command line
seems wrong, according to Rico Tzschichholz, aka ricotz, upstream Vala
contributor.

The attached patch (courtesy of ricotz) allows to build properly. I also
managed to successfully build and use nautilus-wipe with the resulting lib.

Also, the vapi path follows vala recommendation and is put in
/usr/share/vala/vapi.

It was also suggested the *_vala.stamp file should be deleted before
build to ensure the code is properly generated. I implemented this in
the debian package (to be uploaded soon).

Please, consider including this patch.

Cheers,
