Re: Autoconf 2.50



Ben Pfaff <pfaffben@msu.edu> immo vero scripsit

It seems like many packages break with autoconf-2.50, 

Out of all my packages which use autoconf,
 ecasound = ok 
 qtecasound = NO 
 ecawave = NO
 mpich = NO
 beast = NO
 sted2 = NO

only 1 passed autoconf-2.50 unmodified.

It might be just me, but these packages will receive a 
"serious" bug  because they (at least ecawave and 
qtecasound) won't build from source.


I would suggest reverting "autoconf" to be the compatibility 
version, and applications which work with autoconf-2.50
can build-depend upon it, after being verified as such.
