Comment 1 for bug 128222

This FTBFS is due to autopkgtest running "debian/rules build" without running "debian/rules clean" first.

The clean target removes config.{guess,sub} file, then in conig.status target the ln command assumes these files are not there. This can be easily fixed by using "-f" option for ln, but since all buildd runs "debian/rules clean" before building, and policy explicitly says build target may need clean target to be run first, shouldn't autopkgtest be less restrictive on this?
