[needs 2.68] autotools give false warning on AC_INIT

[Sergey V. Udaltsov]

Binary package hint: autoconf

Trying to build any project with bugzilla address, I am getting warnings.

From configure.in:
AC_INIT(libgnomekbd, 2.31.92, [http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=libgnomekbd])

The warnings:

Running aclocal-1.11...
configure.in:4: warning: AC_INIT: not a literal: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=libgnomekbd
Running autoconf...

configure.in:4: warning: AC_INIT: not a literal: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=libgnomekbd

It worked fine in 10.04

That's a bug in autoconf that was fixed in autoconf 2.68:

** AC_INIT again allows URLs with '?' for its BUG-REPORT argument.
   Regression introduced in 2.66.

Fixed in oneiric.
