After upgrading lots of packages on my C360 (including automake) I get the following errors when compiling things:

config.status: creating xa_ext.h
config.status: creating db_config.h
+ make
cd . && aclocal
cd . && automake --foreign --include-deps Makefile
automake: configure.in: required file `./depcomp' not found
make: *** [Makefile.in] Error 1

This particular package always made it through configure but had runtime issues I was hoping to blame the gcc toolchain og glibc
for. Now that we have new versions of both, this happens :)

is automake. It is reported in Debian Weekly report. Automake 1.5 somehow breaks things.
