Package: autoconf
Version: 2.52-6
Severity: important
I just tried to use autoconf and it gave some error about not being able to
find the autoconf2.52 file so I
investigated and found that the file didn't exist, although autoconf2.13
existed. I reinstalled both autoconfs
and now have autoconf2.52 there but obviously something is flakey in the
install process.

This bug, which no one ever reported reproducing, claimed that
autoconf2.13 clobbered files from autoconf. Since then, autoconf2.13
has stopped doing anything tricky with diversions and its files are
entirely disjoint from those in the autoconf package (all the
autoconf2.13 files now contain "2.13" somewhere in the name) so it seems
very unlikely that it could still be true. I'm closing the bug (with
this message).
If you still see a problem, please reopen the bug (with an explanation,
please).
Thanks,
Ben.
