Something changed in 47 to make is needed by default. Yes, they added configure.py :-( Looks as if that is intended to eventually replace the configure script. It has an option to read AUTOCONF from the environment, but when I try that I get {{{ autoconf: error: invalid option `--localdir=/scratch/ken/firefox-47.0/js/src' }}} So it does indeed now need 2.13. But I don't think that installing it in /usr/local is a good idea - ideally, install the binary as autoconf-2.13 in /usr/bin : I'm going to read Tushar's hint [http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/hints/downloads/files/autotools- multiversion.txt] For the moment I'm on gcc-5.3, long way still to go on this. But I suppose I ought to take the ticket, and rename it to 47. -- Ticket URL: <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/ticket/7876#comment:12> BLFS Trac <http://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs> Beyond Linux From Scratch -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/blfs-book FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
