* packaging is not autoconf's job. Using automake is one option to ease this situation and assist for these purposes. It might sound trivial, but if not using such tools, you're essentially on your own ;) * You can't expect not having to change your custom-procedures (eg. cut release tarball-scripts) if switching to a different version of a tool, in general. Or to rephrase it: Yes, autoconf >= 2.53 is incompatible to its predecessors wrt. the topic discussed herein. Ralf
