Dear maintainer:
After the upload of libtool 2.6.2 for unstable, quite a bunch of packages
fail to build in a similar way.
This is an example from abiword, but I've put a list of affected packages in the affects field:
Makefile.am: installing './INSTALL'
goffice-bits/Makefile.am: installing './depcomp'
plugins/collab/backends/telepathy/unix/Makefile.am:21: warning: '%'-style pattern rules are a GNU make extension
src/gi-overrides/Makefile.am:2: installing './py-compile'
parallel-tests: installing './test-driver'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not running make: --make not given
autoreconf: Leaving directory '.'
patching file ./ltmain.sh
Hunk #1 succeeded at 7746 with fuzz 1 (offset 526 lines).
Hunk #2 FAILED at 7615.
1 out of 2 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file ./ltmain.sh.rej
dh_autoreconf: error: patch -f --no-backup-if-mismatch -i /usr/share/dh-autoreconf/ltmain-as-needed.diff ./ltmain.sh r
eturned exit code 1
make[1]: *** [debian/rules:54: override_dh_autoreconf] Error 255
make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>'
make: *** [debian/rules:39: binary] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules binary subprocess failed with exit status 2
Looks like dh_autoreconf needs a minor adjustment for the new libtool.

Thanks.
