You can go to like http://www.icewalk.com - do a search for autoconf,
automake - download the tar.gz files. After you've gotten them, you can
proceed to do a compile/install on those - unless there are updated
packages for autoconf-2.54 and automake-2.54 - which I haven't seen as
of yet.

In order to compile them, you have to read the README file and the
INSTALL file that comes within the archive itself. Compiling and
installing are actually quite simple, but you're going to have to get
used to doing it from a term window - but it does make for good
practice!

If you want a structured list of how to compile, let me know.

If you get the files properly configured and compiled and installed, you
need to check in your /usr/bin to make sure that the "soft-links" point
to the correct versions of autoconf and automake (and all the other
associated binaries necessary for compiling)
