xorg-server rules file puts ./configure in build section

[Christian Neumair]

I'm not really a debian packaging expert, but building the xorg-server package with

 dpkg-buildpackage -nc

always seems to invoke

 ./configure

unless you comment the configure invocation out in the

build:

target.

Shouldn't the package provide a configure-stamp and have a configure target?

Patches are welcome, this has been discussed with Debian and it's doable.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.

Sorry for the automated closing, I know this is still the current behavior already...
