IMO autotools should be properly deprecated prior it its removal, so here <br>
is a patch to do just that. I think autotools should be marked as deprecated <br>
for the 19.0 release and, depending on feedback, it could be removed with 19.1.<br>
Anyway, in the end it's up to the release team how to handle this. <br>
<br>
Best,<br>
