Description of problem: When automake is built, /usr/lib/rpm/redhat/brp-mangle-shebangs changes /bin/sh to /usr/bin/sh in the various helper scripts like /usr/share/automake-1.16/missing and /usr/share/automake-1.16/config.guess. This is fine on Magiea, except that these scripts are copied into packages that are intended to run on any *NIX system, including those that don't have /usr/bin/sh. This mangling should be removed for these scripts so they remain portable. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.16.2-1 How reproducible: It's a problem on systems that haven't done the usr merge. Steps to Reproduce: 1. autoreconf -if some autoconf-using project 2. make a tar ball 3. extract that tar ball on another distro that hasn't done usr merge and try to configure it

Please try again with automake-1.16.2-2.mga8 which I submitted now: http://pkgsubmit.mageia.org/
That fixed it! Thanks for the quick turnaround.
