[Cooker] Specific autoconf version required for building mozilla and byacc from SRPM.
It appears mozilla only rebuilds from SRPM with autoconf 2.13. Using 2.5 I get the following message (on mozilla-1.3-1mdk.src.rpm and the two previous versions): --SNIP--- Patch #47 (mozilla-1.1-spellcheckerinclude.patch.bz2): + /usr/bin/bzip2 -d + patch -p1 -b --suffix .spellcheckinclude -s + autoconf build/autoconf/altoptions.m4:140: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion build/autoconf/altoptions.m4:137: MOZ_READ_MOZCONFIG is expanded from... build/autoconf/altoptions.m4:140: the top level autom4te-2.5x: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1 byacc-1.9-13mdk.src.rpm is also affected by this (problem command is autoheader). Given the few people who rebuild from SRPM and that autoconf 2.13 is Mandrake's default choice, is it even worth a formal bug report suggesting a change to the spec file? Arn PS-I'm rebuilding for 9.0, but I don't think it should affect the underlying issue.

Especially if autoconf 2.5 requires autoconf 2.13 and that generally the right autoconf script is used, or 2.13 by default? I had WANT_AUTOCONF_2_5 set. Why? I have absolutely no idea. Arn
