core-deps-base-3.4: lcms2, ical: use ./configure
Last modified: 2012-03-10 06:09:17 UTC
Both of these modules suffer build failures on Ubuntu due to libtool incompatibility. This is caused by autogen.sh updating some but not all of the in-tree copy of the libtool. The solution is to rerun libtoolize or (easier and better), not run autogen on tarballs.

We should probably reconsider the default for tarballs... autogen causes all kinds of trouble, where ./configure is the "official way" to build tarballs so it pretty much always works.
The change to run ./configure only for tarballs make sense. Could you open another bug report to change this?
