(autoconf.info.gz) Obsolete Constructs

 
 Obsolete Constructs
 *******************
 
    Autoconf changes, and throughout the years some constructs have been
 obsoleted.  Most of the changes involve the macros, but in some cases
 the tools themselves, or even some concepts, are now considered
 obsolete.
 
    You may completely skip this chapter if you are new to Autoconf.  Its
 intention is mainly to help maintainers updating their packages by
 understanding how to move to more modern constructs.
