HEADS_UP:

The Change of autoconf to version 2.71 is built and done. F36FTBFS bugs are created [1] for failed builds of packages. Most of them are caused by minor issues and not merged pull-requests of fixes regarding autoconf-2.71 change. Hopefully have this done in a short time.

Thanks for cooperation!

Ah, yeah that makes sense, since this change should only affect the
build itself. Thanks for the explanation.
