autoconf (2.64-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Add back Suggests: autoconf-archive removed in 2.64-3. I did check

autoconf (2.64-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Require m4 version 1.4.13 or later for both build and installation.
GNU m4 1.4.13 adds a "--gnu" option that Autom4te uses at runtime if
it was found to work at build time, so these dependencies ensure
consistency. Thanks to Martin Casado <casado@nicira.com> for
reporting the problem.

* debian/control: Change dependency on automake | automaken back to a

often used with autoconf (and invoked by autoreconf) but not nearly so
often as automake.
