Re: dh-autoreconf/autotools-dev questions



* Gergely Nagy <algernon@balabit.hu>, 2011-08-16, 16:16:
I am packaging a software which uses autoconf and automake. I will
regenerate all autotool files with dh-autoreconf.
* The upstream tarball contains auto-generated files.  Do I have to
save these files somewhere before calling dh_autoreconf and restore them in the clean target, or is it enough to remove auto-generated files in the clean target so that they are regenerated again in the build target?

Just call dh_autoreconf, nothing else to do.

Err... from the manual pages:

dh_autoreconf - Call autoreconf -f -i and keep track of the changed files
dh_autoreconf_clean - Clean all changes made by dh_autoreconf
