I may have misunderstood the point of the bug in that case. Sorry about
that.
Quoting from the original bug description:
> the check also claims that packages can not be found for any build

The code changed months ago to fix this issue, and since that was 72% of
the bug description text, I felt it was appropriate to close the bug.
Side note: Last time I tried to split up Makefile into Makefile and
configure, there was strong opposition against that idea. I do listen to
others, and since it works for users right now (and is admittedly easier
to use), it is unlikely that such a split will happen.
Feel free to open a ticket for this, preferably in flashrom trac at
