["Olivier Mengué (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2C-1436?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12851851#action_12851851 ] 

Olivier Mengué commented on AXIS2C-1436:
----------------------------------------

> People do not use binary alone, nor the source pack alone.
> For example, we use source checkout and build on various platforms.

Upgrading autotools could be part of the build process.

At least you could build the official source releases in an environment with a recent autotools suite.

> Here is a script to upgrade all configure.ac:

> do
>         echo autoreconf/autoupdate for $d
>         ( cd $d ; autoreconf -i && autoupdate ) || exit 1
