Comment 5 for bug 19396

Can't open a new bug report ('Oops! Sorry, something just went wrong in Launchpad.'), so I'm tacking on the end of a similar thread. My apologies in advance.

jeffrey@gauss:~/gnu-pdf$ dpkg -s automake
Package: automake
Status: install ok installed
...
Source: automake1.11
Version: 1:1.11-1

jeffrey@gauss:~/gnu-pdf$ automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.11

If automake is at 1.11, then automake has an outstanding vulnerability:
   CVE-2009-4029 Automake security fix for 'make dist*'
   http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2009-12/msg00012.html

If the '-1' in 1.11-1 is supposed to signify 1.11.1, then something appears broken (configure.ac includes AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([1.11.1])):

jeffrey@gauss:~/gnu-pdf$ ./bootstrap
Bootstrapping the GNU PDF Library with:
  autoreconf -i
configure.ac:27: require Automake 1.11.1, but have 1.11
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1
