29 <application>Autoconf2.13</application> is an old version of
30 <application>Autoconf</application> . This old version accepts switches
31 which are not valid in more recent versions. Now that
32 <application>firefox</application> has started to use
33 <application>python2</application> for configuring, this old version is
34 required even if configure files have not been changed.

145 <para>
146 <command>install -v -m644 ...</command>: the patch removes install-info
147 from the Makefile because that would install (and if necessary recreate)
148 standards.info which is an old version, so now
149 <filename>autoconf213.info</filename> has to be manually installed.
