Updated: autoconf-2.57a-1 (wrappers)


[does NOT require cygwin-1.5.3+ -- this package was in 'test' for normal reasons. It doesn't solve all the problems I wanted it to, but it works everywhere the old version did, and fixes several bugs.]

The autoconf package has been updated to version 2.57a-1. Recall that this package is not the REAL autoconf. It's a set of wrapper scripts that call the REAL autoconf from autoconf-stable or autoconf-devel, depending on the needs of your target. See this message
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2001-12/msg00100.html


CHANGES:

o WANT_AUTOCONF_VER variable support added; now you can
  override the auto-detection logic by setting this environment
  variable.  e.g. "WANT_AUTOCONF_VER=2.57"

o Add support for missing options
  (autoreconf) Add --opt-make
  (autoreconf) Add --opt-warnings
  (autoscan)   Add --opt-debug
  (ifnames)    Add --opt-macrodir
