FTBFS in x/b

[Dan Streetman]

[impact]

rpcbind FTBFS in x/b due to including intermediate build files that use the wrong version of aclocal and fail, e.g.:

/usr/bin/make
make[1]: Entering directory '/repos/rpcbind/rpcbind'
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/bash /repos/rpcbind/rpcbind/missing aclocal-1.14
/repos/rpcbind/rpcbind/missing: line 81: aclocal-1.14: command not found

Note that the level of dh compat is lower than the level where dh_autoreconf is run by default.

[test case]

attempt to build rpcbind for x or b.

[regression potential]

this forces dh_autoreconf to be run, just as debhelper does by default in dh compat levels higher than the level used in b and earlier. any regression would likely involve build-time problems.

[scope]

This is needed only for x and b.

Focal and later use dh compat levels high enough that debhelper runs autoreconf by default. The intermediate build files in trusty do not have a mismatch with the available version of aclocal.
