| I'm building OpenSMTPD 5.4.5 on a Slackware Linux current (amd64) system

| The configure gets an error because it seems to require automake 1.15
| but I have 1.14:

| CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh
| /tmp/SBo/opensmtpd-5.4.5p1/missing aclocal-1.15 -I m4
| /tmp/SBo/opensmtpd-5.4.5p1/missing: line 81: aclocal-1.15: command not
| found
| WARNING: 'aclocal-1.15' is missing on your system.
|          You should only need it if you modified 'acinclude.m4' or
|          'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
|          The 'aclocal' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
|          <http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
|          It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
|          <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
|          <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
|          <http://www.perl.org/>
| make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 127

| There is a simple work around though and I can get a clean build if I do
| this just before the configure:

|  touch aclocal.m4 Makefile.in

#v+
find opensmtpd-5.4.5p1 -type f -name 'Makefile.in' |xargs touch \
   opensmtpd-5.4.5p1/aclocal.m4 opensmtpd-5.4.5p1/Makefile.in \
   opensmtpd-5.4.5p1/config.h.in opensmtpd-5.4.5p1/configure
#v-

is what I am using to avoid depending on autotools.
