Ralf, could you either indicate where in the guidelines this type of
thing is
forbidden or at least point to some discussion on the matter? Your final
statement about the package being disqualified from Extras seems awfully
arbitrary without it.
This is not a matter of taste nor of personal preference.
It's a mere technical requirement implied by autoconf's and a compiler's
working
principles (cf. info autoconf, search the autoconf mailing lists archive).
Or to put it in short: This package is unusable.
I have no opinion one way or the other on this issue because I am not
familiar
with it, but if you're just making up policy then I don't think it's fair to
the package submitter.
Sorry, but I am not making up packaging policies here nor am
I accusing the
packager.
It's simply a case of "this package's sources are broken and need to be
reworked
to be functional".
