Package: autoconf
Version: 2.61-8
Severity: wishlist

If autoreconf is run when some required files are missing (e.g.,
install-sh), automake displays a message suggesting that it be run
with the --add-missing option.

 configure.ac:22: required file `./install-sh' not found
 configure.ac:22:   `automake --add-missing' can install `install-sh'
 configure.ac:22: required file `./missing' not found
 configure.ac:22:   `automake --add-missing' can install `missing'
 Makefile.am: required file `./depcomp' not found
 Makefile.am:   `automake --add-missing' can install `depcomp'
 autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1

Since autoreconf supports a --install option which runs automake with
the --add-missing option, it would be nice if autoreconf suggested
that it be rerun with the --install option in this case.
