Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[TroubleMakerDV (grayman2000)]

Confirmed in 10.04 thru 12.04 in /64 versions.
In /32 the executable exists

In Precise, the problem is that the configure file shipped is failing to consider x86_64 a valid target as it does not match the shell glob 'i?86*'. The attached fixes it. Note that configure is meant to be built from configure.ac etc., but it's far from clear whether this actually happens at package build time, so I have patched both.

In Lucid, at least on x86_64, I think the program is being installed as 'resize' not 'resizecons' (contrary to the manpage bottom line).
