[Bug 1370553] Re: Please add package alias for autoreconf

 

Does this god damn database of packages even work? I search for a
package, I get a package name, and then select it. When I try to save
it, I get "There is 1 error in the data you entered. Please fix it and
try again."


** Package changed: ubuntu => apt (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Please add package alias for autoreconf

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  While trying to configure QEMU, I received the error:

      (cd .../qemu-2.1.1/pixman; autoreconf -v --install)
      /bin/sh: 1: autoreconf: not found
      make: *** [.../qemu-2.1.1/pixman/configure] Error 127

  I thought it would be easy to solve:

      sudo apt-get install autoreconf
      Reading package lists... Done
      Building dependency tree       
      Reading state information... Done
      E: Unable to locate package autoreconf

  Fortunately, I came across others who had the same problem. The
  problem seems to be with the package name. There's nothing intuitive
  about "dh-autoreconf".

  Please create an alias for "dh-autoreconf".
