Hi, when I updated autoconf to 2.60 some weeks ago, Matt noticed that it broke grub (in grub's Pkgfile, we regenerate configure because we need to patch configure.in). With autoconf 2.60, the default mandir changed from /usr/man to /usr/share/man. We decided to patch autoconf to revert this change, but I don't think this is a good idea anymore. This issue is non-critical, and I'd like to avoid having a different autotools environment than on any other distro. We'll have to add "--mandir=/usr/man" to more configure lines in the next few months anyway, while projects update autoconf to 2.60, so it doesn't really matter if we add it to the Pkgfiles where we call autoconf ourselves.
