Description Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2007-01-14 21:08:31 CET 
While preparing xfce 4.2.4 release, I've had to face a bug in the GNU autotools. I've then updated to the latest autoconf/automake but that did not help, xdt-autogen was still using automake-1.9 and autoconf-2.58

The following patch does 2 things:

- Include the latest auto tools to the search list
- Add --force-missing to force the update of the various GNU tools scripts (namely install-sh, depcomp, mkinstalldirs, etc.)
