Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] [PATCH] Improved version check in autogen.sh

["Peter Kjellerstedt" <peter.kjellerstedt@xxxxxxxx>]

After updating to the latest CVS version I expected
autogen.sh to tell me that I needed newer tools since 
mine do not meet the requirements. However, it didn't.
It turned out that the version checks were incorrect.
I would also like to be able to specify which tools
should be used as mine are installed as autoconf-2.53
and automake-1.6.

The following patch should:
* Correct the version checks (use path expansion
  rather than regular expressions, and fail if the 
  tools are not installed at all).
* Make it possible to specify other names for the 
  auto* tools to use (e.g., automake-1.6 instead 
  of automake).
