Comment:
It is safer to keep the autoreconf for now. The tarball that the
maintainer generated initially did not have include some key autotools
files. (That is the tarball that I have.) Down the line, someone notified
the maintainer about the missing files and he recreated the tarball with
the appropriate files but did not change the version number. So there are
two files floating around the net with the same version number. For folks
who download the first tarball the command is required, for the second the
command is superfluous.
BTW, I came to know of the two different tarballs after I updated the
book.
Please comment on how the book should be updated.
