I suspect he may be trying to rebuild the Fedora CUPS RPMs on a RHEL 8 or 9 based machine. Ironically CUPS 2.4.x doesn't actually need autoconf to be at least 2.71, on openSUSE they have a downgrade-autoconf-requirement.patch file which downgrades the requirement to 2.69: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE%3AFactory/cups Cheers, Doug _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
