please update autoconf package in testing to 2.61-3
Autoconf 2.61-3 in unstable fixes bug #403243 that caused a FTBFS
in net-snmp. It is a one-line change from 2.61-2, confirmed to
be correct by the upstream maintainers, with no extraneous
changes. Thus, I'd appreciate it if 2.61-3 could be promoted to
testing.
In the meantime, the FTBFS was worked around in net-snmp, making
this no longer release-critical in Autoconf. As I understand it,
only release-critical bug fixes are being accepted to testing, so
I will understand if my request is refused. I am asking for this
exception by request from Peter Palfrader <peter@palfrader.org>.
This Autoconf bug also affects one of his packages (although he
admits that that package will not be released).

casually pry a hint out of me." --Ryan Tucker in the Monastery
