Subject: grass: please migrate away from autoconf2.13

Dear Maintainer,

your package build-depends on autoconf2.13, which is obsolete and
orphaned in Debian.

Please investigate migrating away from autoconf2.13, possibly to
autoconf 2.69 or newer (package name "autoconf").

I see Bas already filed a bug report upstream: https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/560

Best,
Chris

I'd love to, but upstream doesn't support it yet. Not much I can do
about that.

I'll nag upstream in that issue, but don't keep your hopes up.

Hopefully they'll fix their autoconf support to enable the 2.13 removal
before the bookworm release.

Kind Regards,

Bas
