Hi,

It not seems a code without a source code. The code can't be
regenerated from a configure.ac but it can be modified to work if it
is necessary. It is similar to a traditional configure file, made by
hand. I can't see a real problem here. IMO, there is an editable
source code and is all right.

Please, consider closing this bug. I think that are several similar
packages in Debian. If you disagree, I will submit a question to
debian-legal.

Thanks in advanced.

Regards,

Eriberto
