Hi,

I am concerned about this change to autotools-vars.mk:

revision 1.5
date: 2003/06/14 19:17:22;  author: jbailey;  state: Exp;  lines: +3 -3
Don't clobber user settings for DEB_MAKE_INSTALL_TARGET, DEB_MAKE_CLEAN_TARGET, and DEB_MAKE_CHECK_TARGET

That effectively makes the variables in autotools-vars.mk do nothing,
because they're all already set by makefile.mk.  I deliberately used :=
there. 

This doesn't clobber user changes because users should be setting those
variables (using :=) *below* the rule inclusion.  Please revert this
change.
