>                 Key: QPID-1740
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-1740
>             Project: Qpid
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: C++ Broker
>    Affects Versions: M5
>         Environment: Arch Linux, GNU Autoconf 2.63, GNU Automake 1.10, GNU Libtool 2.2.6a
>            Reporter: Jan Sarenik
>            Priority: Trivial
>             Fix For: M5
>
>         Attachments: 0001-Deletion-of-undocumented-ECHO.patch
>
>   Original Estimate: 0.08h
>  Remaining Estimate: 0.08h
>
> In newer version of Libtool, ECHO variable is not set in
> generated Makefiles, merely the lt_ECHO is. The ECHO
> variable has never been documented nor meant to be used that
> way without having independent M4 echo test in-code.
> Available solutions:
>   1. Start generating snapshots that will
>      contain "./configure" & friends pre-generated
>      by your preferred version of GNU Autotools
>      which includes the undocumented ECHO variable
>      in generated Makefiles.
>   2. Start using CMake after 0.5 release.
>   3. Apply the patch in attachment to make the
>      code ready for latest versions of Autotools.
> AFAIK code rebase to CMake is on its way, but IMHO the
> change of build system does not prevent us from making
> errors so please read the docs.
