Valid question. I remember one bug on
bugs.gentoo.org where LDFLAGS
where needed in the compilation stage. I just tried to find it again
without luck. I could ask on gentoo-dev about it.
ok, I'll include CFLAGS for linker so far

It's not Gentoo specific, no.
I would say it's good and common practice to ship configure and friends.
"make dist" of Automake includes that file, so every project using
Automake always ships configure. If you did, it would save time waiting
for autoreconf and protect from possible problems of configure
generation, as you have created that file successfully already. If it's
easy for you to include the file, please do.
will think about it.. I saw some packages carying configure script,
but I thought there's no reason because it can be easily generated
I'll scan more packages and see if I can google out something..

I guess you'd need a Debian developer to answer that properly.
yep, Akos is man :)
When I was building Debian packages as proxied maintainer (before
Gentoo) I did not want upstream to ship any Debian packaging files, as
that conflicted with my own packaging, which went into ./debian, too.
So if you want to ship these files, ./package/debian sounds better to
me. Please get another opinion on that, though.
Thanks for your quick reply. Best,
thanks,

PS: Is there a gitweb for latrace somewhere? How come you are not
using the repo over here?
