Our tests want to be able to change symbols from the library and
even by using --wrap=XYZ it is not possible right now. One option
would be to use static linking but that is not always enabled, the
other is to skip tests on Ubuntu and the third one is to disable
that linking mode. This means that the dynamic linker needs to
spend some more time but we do spend this time on all other distros
and this looks acceptable.
Remove the .dirs/.install as things will go wrong then. debhelper
will try to install the debug symbols before they were created. Thanks
to Jan for pointing that out.
The bits test will fail on Debian Stable for x86. Somehow the load
of a static const array is ending up accessing random memory. This
only happens when not using any -OX options and this is caused by
us. Do not override the default debian CFLAGS.. and the tests will
pass on debian stable.
Switch to the git format as this can generate the source directly
from the git checkout. Increase the version number to 0.1.27 as this
is the latest tag, depend on autoconf, automake and libtool and use
autoreconf when building to be able to directly build from a git
clone.
