[Bug 1307604] Re: Sync flex 2.5.39-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

[LocutusOfBorg]

please wait for the -4 release, the -3 fixes the upgrade problem, but
introduces a regression because of a typo in rules file

** Summary changed:

- Sync flex 2.5.39-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)
+ Sync flex 2.5.39-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

** Description changed:

- Please sync flex 2.5.39-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)
+ Please sync flex 2.5.39-4 (main) from Debian unstable (main)
  
  Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
-   * Preseed autoconf vars ac_cv_func_malloc_0_nonnull=yes and
-     ac_cv_func_realloc_0_nonnull for cross builds.
-   * Resynchronise with Debian.  Remaining changes:
-     - Split the flex package into flex and libfl-dev, with flex as a
-       Multi-Arch: foreign package depending on a Multi-Arch: same libfl-dev,
-       so that flex works for cross-building.

  first change fixed with package dh switch
  second one merged in debian too
  
  Changelog entries since current trusty version 2.5.35-10.1ubuntu2:
  
  flex (2.5.39-1) unstable; urgency=medium
  
-   * New upstream release
-   * internationalization: added support for various languages. Fix make
-     install target to not fail when the flex++ program is already
-     installed. various portability fixes that quiet compiler warnings on
-     64-bit hosts. numerous bug fixes.
-   * Moved to a new dh based build system. Also moved to a 3.0 source
-     format, using debcherry.
-   * Bug fix: "cross build support", thanks to Eleanor Chen. We have moved
-     to a standard dh based build, so we should not have this issue any more.

-   * Bug fix: "please mark flex as Multi-Arch: allowed", thanks to Steve
-     Langasek. Redid the patch to work with dh.     (Closes: #611230).
-   * Updating to a new build system means that the changes made to the
-     build system in the NMU are not needed, dh does the right thing.
-   * The new upstream release added the prototypes in re-entrant mode, so
-     we are no longer carrying those patches.
