You mean something like:

Description: alternative to GNU autoconf source code configuration system

* lose the article
* lose the full stop
* do not capitalize the beginning of the description unless a proper
  noun, proper adjective, abbreviation, or acronym requires it
* I don't know what GNU/autoconf is.  Is that like GNU/Linux?
* short description still doesn't help people who don't know what
  autoconf is
