I have to admit that I am puzzled that so many
packages in fink have explicit autoconf dependencies.
How many of these are from autoconf being used to
regenerate patched configure files and how many are
from parts of autoconf being called silently from within
configure itself? It would would seem like a good thing
to try to avoid autoconf dependencies in packages unless
absolutely necessary (ie if a small patch configure can
be used instead of regenerating it from configure.in/ac
instead).
