--- Begin Message ---Package: autoconf2.13 Version: 2.13-35 Severity: wishlist Currently, with both 'autoconf' and 'autoconf2.13' installed, 'autoconf --version' returns 'Autoconf version 2.13'. Can you consider having this return 2.50 instead? Here's a snippet from an autogen.sh that would work better the other way: ... set -e if autoconf --version | head -1 | grep '2\.50' > /dev/null 2>&1; then cp configure.in-v2.50 configure.in else cp configure.in-v2.13 configure.in fi ... (This is from Abiword CVS, if it matters.)

--- Begin Message ---This bug report is tied to the wrapper script that was present in older versions of the autoconf2.13 package. These days, the wrapper script is gone, so anyone who runs "autoconf --version" gets the 2.50+ version of Autoconf and anyone who runs "autoconf2.13 --version" gets version 2.13. I think that's a reasonable solution, so I'm closing this bug. Please reopen this bug if you disagree (with an explanation, please). Thanks, Ben.
