While KDevelop also accepts autoconf 2.13, it warns that in the future its support will be droped. And many KDE 3 sources I got from the Internet already require a 2.5x version.

Also, how many KDE software still requires autoconf 2.13. It would be nice to add the WANT_AUTOCONFIG_2_5 variable to STARTKDE in case no KDE app needed the older version in case you need to keep both autoconf (2.13 and 2.5x).

Any ideas!!!!

Cool, thanks for all the work you did.  I imagine the
KDevelop people will fix it for the newest
autoconf/automake (if they haven't already).  If 2.13
works, then I guess the issue right now is KDevelop
should be using that even if 2.5 is installed, and
with the way our autoconf packages are set up, that
should be pretty easy (I'd think).

What do you think Laurent?
