autoreconf - Update generated configuration files

Author

       Written by David J. MacKenzie and Akim Demaille.

Description

       Run   'autoconf'   and,   when   needed,   'aclocal',  'autoheader',  'automake',  'autopoint'  (formerly
       'gettextize'), 'libtoolize', 'intltoolize', and 'gtkdocize' to regenerate the GNU Build System  files  in
       specified DIRECTORIES and their subdirectories (defaulting to '.').

       By  default,  it only remakes those files that are older than their sources.  If you install new versions
       of the GNU Build System, you can make 'autoreconf' remake all of the files by  giving  it  the  '--force'
       option.

   Operationmodes:-h, --help
              print this help, then exit

       -V, --version
