For the archive, the above configure output is specific to the Automake package and usually caused by 1. some PATH screwup (like trying autoconf --version in another environment, or reseting PATH for non-interactive shells), 2. those distributions that install a "smart" autoconf wrapper that fails to select the right version. Erik answered that after reinstalling Autoconf from source everything want fine, so this seems to indicate #2, although we'll never know. PS: I know this is not the first time, but I simply do not understand why you respond to bug reports without Cc: the reporter. We are all losers with this: you waste your time writing an answer the reporter won't read, the other people on the list won't answer because someone apparently did, and the reporter do not get any help, and will not send any complementary information necessary to fix the bug if there is really one. -- Alexandre Duret-Lutz
