Description Frédéric Bérat 2022-11-17 13:16:13 UTC
Autoconf 2.72 seems to be under preparation upstream, I therefore started to build dependent components to verify that they can be built once it lands in Fedora.

Your component fails to build with the new version of autoconf, due to the following error:

---

AMU: prepare acinclude.m4...
AMU: autoreconf...
am-utils requires autoconf 2.69 or 2.71, you have:
	autoreconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.72c.47-75861
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.SNwjVi (%prep)
    Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.SNwjVi (%prep)
---

Please adapt your component so that it support Autoconf 2.72.

AFAICT there isn't any way to get either a source or binary rpm of 2.72 that is
appropriate for Fedora rawhide.

If/when one is available I will have a look at what needs to be done.
