Hello,
please see attached rebuild of autoconf-dependencies [1]. I would like to
ask maintainers of the dependent packages to check if their packages are
buildable with autoconf-2.71. It seems that lots of packages are checking
for exactly version 2.69, which blocks the build and there might be no
problem with version 2.71. Also there are some minor issues (unresolved
dependencies, failure in %check phase,...), which can be resolved by a
small fix. Please investigate the appropriate copr builds. If your fix is
ready, just push it to the rawhide branch and it will be automatically
rebuilt with the new autoconf-2.71 in copr. Most of the packages are
successfully built with autoconf (~1450 from ~1600), so there are ~150
packages to investigate.
Attaching also results from a tester launched by Jeff Law [2] (accessible
only on Red Hat VPN) which shows changes of packages with autoconf-2.69 and
autoconf-2.71. This may help to understand the changes better.
Thank you for your cooperation!
Ondrej.

How did you find the dependent packages? I would suggest updating the
dependent packages list again, since audacity can be removed from the list
of packages needing a rebuild since you are using 2.4.2. That release
switched to CMake from autotools because upstream unceremoniously removed
the entire autotools build system in the patch release.
