Title:
  failure to build on wily proposed due to wrong LDFLAGS usage

Status in quota package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in quota package in Debian:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  quota build in Wily proposed is failing due to '-ltirpc' being added
  to LDFLAGS instead of LIBS.

  As stated in
  https://wiki.debian.org/ToolChain/DSOLinking#Only_link_with_needed_libraries
  and
  http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.60/html_node
  /Preset-Output-Variables.html#index-LDFLAGS-93 libraries must be added
  to LIBS instead of LDFLAGS.

  The attached debdiff fixed the issue by:
  1. Moving the '-ltirpc' entry from LDFLAGS to LIBS in debian/rules
  2. Adding a $(LIBS) entry to binaries builds in Makefile.in
