Update configure.ac (fixes warnings from autoconf) #9
Conversation
`autoreconf -i` produced several of these warnings:
configure.ac:235: warning: The macro `AC_PROG_LIBTOOL' is obsolete.
configure.ac:235: You should run autoupdate.
configure.ac:261: warning: The macro `AC_HELP_STRING' is obsolete.
configure.ac:261: You should run autoupdate.
`autoupdate` only updated `configure.ac`, so the rest was fixed manually.

Thanks for the proposal! I would prefer making this backwards compatible (i.e. version conditionals where some macros are not available anymore, and not requiring a higher autoconf version). Have you tried submitting these on the upstream at LRDE already? |

The change does not introduce new requirements because other code which uses autotools (notably Tesseract) already had the same cleanup long ago, but only required version 2.69. I updated the PR to do that here, too. 2.69 was already part of Debian buster, so it's old enough to be supported by all relevant build platforms. |

Please register at LRDE Gitlab and open a Merge request there (unfortunately I have been locked out since they migrated from another system and do not accept my credentials anymore, but also do not allow me to re-register my mail). |
How? I only found links to sign in, but none to register. |
I don't remember – but I suddenly can get in again. I'll prepare a merge request with your changes. |
