Re: automake changes

Now that the automake split (a set of orthogonal automake1.XX-core with 
versioned files and a set of mutually exclusive automake1.XX dependent 
on them with generic filenames) is done, there is a dependency deadlock 
via autoconf. The am1.XX-core have Depends:autoconf2.6 but lots of 
packages use BuildDepends:autoconf,automake1.XX and autoconf2.6 and 
autoconf are mutually exclusive. Cannot install ac because it wants to 
displace ac2.6 and ac2.6 cannot be removed because am1.XX-core depends 
on it and am1.XX depends on that. Can am1.XX-core have Depends:ac2.6|ac 
(allowing either autoconf flavor)? Or can we push promptly the same 
type of conversion of autoconf* to autoconf*-core and have am1.XX-core 
hardcode pointers to the versioned ac stuff?
