I'm getting new build failures on the autotools macros that had been working for years.  rpmbuild doesn't like
them anymore in rawhide.  The macros are (or were) in the file `/usr/lib/rpm/macros`.   The relevant portion
of my spec is here:

-- spec --
%build
%{__aclocal} -I auxdir
%{__autoconf}
%{__automake} --no-force

Is there a new dependency I need to add or is something just broken?


Panu ripped them out for rpm 4.15:

You can trivially switch to just calling the commands...


...which is what those packages should've been using in the first place.

This goes to ALL those %__foo macros on random utilities: their raison d'être is to allow users to change rpm behavior without recompiling.

They're not really intended to be directly used, never were. The two leading underscores are a hint of that, although one leading underscore is so widely used for non-internal purposes too that the meaning has become obscured. Unfortunately.
