• Autoreconf issue causing missing definitions in config.h of numdiff

    From Andreas Tille@21:1/5 to All on Wed Mar 5 11:00:02 2025
    Hi,

    since numdiff came up as a candidate for the bug of the day[1] I had a
    look into this cute scientific tool. Paolo, Yaroslav I guess it is OK
    for you to maintain it in Debian Science team, where I've create a repository[2] based on a clone from you gitlab.com repository.

    After bumping debhelper compat level to 13 I realised that the
    autoreconf step failed, did some slight fixes in an according patch but
    this was not sufficient since the resulting config.h file does not
    contain all definitions from config.h.in which is the cause for the
    resulting build failure[3].

    I'd be delighted about some help to really fix the autoconf stuff.

    Kind regards
    Andreas.
