  - Add a Build-Depends on dh-autoreconf.
  - Drop Build-Depends for autoconf, automake, autotools-dev.
* debian/patches/isoc11_drops_gets.patch: don't try to warn for use of gets,
  it's not actually used in acct and no longer in C11, which causes the
  attempt to set a warning to fail the build. (Closes: 701386)

  documentation from texi source. Thanks, Dimitry Ledkov.
