The Debian package for autoconf in unstable is the piece of this puzzle that is within my power to fix, and so I have uploaded autoconf 2.61-7 with this patch. When this kind of thing comes up, please feel free to file a bug against the autoconf package. I do my best to fix important problems as soon as I can. It's easy in a case like this where an upstream fix has already been committed. -- Ben Pfaff http://benpfaff.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
