autoconf (2.69-1ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low

  * Merge from Debian unstable, remaining changes:
    - bin/autoreconf.in: Check whether libtoolize supports --install, if it
      does, libtoolize is safe to run at all times since it will not install
      new files unless --install is passed to it as well.
  * Dropped changes:
    - Multiarch: foreign is not needed just for Architecture: all packages
      used as build-dependencies; it's correct here but not worth carrying
      a delta for.
