automake: Update to version 1.17

  - Update from version 1.16.5 to 1.17
- Update of rootfile
- Changelog
    1.17
	* New features added
	  - AM_PATH_PYTHON will, after checking "python", prefer any Python 3
	    version (latest versions checked first) over any Python 2
	    version. If a specific version of Python 2 is still needed, the
	    $PYTHON variable should be set beforehand.
	  - AM_PATH_PYTHON will also search for Python versions 3.20 through 3.10.
	    It previously searched for 3.9 through 3.0. (bug#53530)
	  - RANLIB may be overridden on a per-target basis.
	  - AM_TEXI2FLAGS may be defined to pass extra flags to TEXI2DVI & TEXI2PDF.
	  - New option "posix" to emit the special target .POSIX for make.
	    (bug#55025, bug#67891)
	  - Systems with non-POSIX "rm -f" behavior are now supported, and the
	    prior intent to drop support for them has been reversed.
	    The ACCEPT_INFERIOR_RM_PROGRAM setting no longer exists.
	    (bug#10828)
	  - Variables using escaped \# will trigger portability warnings, but be
	    retained when appended.  GNU Make & BSD Makes are known to support it.
	    (bug#7610)
	  - GNU Make's default pattern rules are disabled, for speed and debugging.
	    (.SUFFIXES was already cleared.) (bug#64743)
	  - For Texinfo documents, if a .texi.in file exists, but no .texi, the
	    .texi.in will be read. Texinfo source files need not be present at
	    all, and if present, need not contain @setfilename. Then the file name
	    as given in the Makefile.am will be used.  If @setfilename is present,
	    it should be the basename of the Texinfo file, extended with .info.
	    (bug#54063)
	  - aclocal has a new option --aclocal-path to override $ACLOCAL_PATH.
	    (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2022-01/msg00029.html)
	  - The missing script also supports autoreconf, autogen, and perl.
	    (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-patches/2015-08/msg00000.html)
	  - test-suite.log now contains basic system information, and the
	    console message about bug reporting on failure has a bit more detail.
	    (bug#68746, bug#71421)
	  - When using the (default) "parallel" test driver, you can now omit the
	    output of skipped tests from test-suite.log by defining the
	    variable IGNORE_SKIPPED_LOGS to a non-empty value. (bug#71422)
	* Bugs fixed
	  - Generated file timestamp checks handle filesystems with subsecond
	    timestamp granularity dynamically, greatly speeding up the sleep
	    done by AC_OUTPUT when generating config.status (all packages) and
	    Automake's make check.
	    However, this subsecond-mtime support requires an autom4te from
	    Autoconf 2.72 or later (or random test failures and other timing
	    problems may ensue), as well as a Perl, sleep program, make program,
	    and filesystem that all support subsecond resolution; otherwise, we
	    fall back to a two-second granularity, not even testing the (common)
	    1s case since that would induce a 2s delay for all configure scripts
	    in all packages on all systems that don't support subsecond mtimes.
	    When everything is supported, a line "Features: subsecond-mtime" is
	    now printed by automake --version and autom4te --version.
	    To override this check and delay, e.g. to use 1 second:
	      am_cv_filesystem_timestamp_resolution=1
	      export am_cv_filesystem_timestamp_resolution
	    (commit 720a11531,
	      https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake-commit/2022-02/msg00009.html
	    then bug#60808, bug#64756, bug#67670, bug#68808, bug#71652,
	    history reviewed in
	      https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2024-06/msg00054.html
	    and more info in surrounding threads.)
	  - The default value of $ARFLAGS is now "cr" instead of "cru", to better
	    support deterministic builds. (bug#20082)
	  - Automake's make dist now uses -9 instead of --best with gzip,
	    because Alpine gzip does not support --best. Also, GZIP_ENV is used
	    only for compression, not decompression, because of the same system.
	    (bug#68151)
	  - Dependency files are now empty, instead of "# dummy", for speed.
	    (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2022-05/msg00006.html)
	  - Compiling Python modules with Python 3.5+ uses multiple optimization
	    levels. (bug#38043)
	  - If the Python installation "scheme" is set to posix_local (Debian),
	    it is reset to either deb_system (if the prefix = /usr), or
	    posix_prefix (otherwise). (bug#54412, bug#64837)
	  - As a result of the Python scheme change, the installation directory
	    for Python files again defaults to "site-packages" under the usual
	    installation prefix, even on systems (generally Debian-based) that
	    would normally use the "dist-packages" subdirectory under
	    /usr/local.
	  - When compiling Emacs Lisp files, emacs is run with --no-site-file to
	    disable user config files that might hang or access the terminal;
	    and -Q is not used, since its support and behavior varies. (bug#58102)
	  - Emacs Lisp compilations respect silent make output.
	  - Automake no longer incorrectly warns that the POSIX make variables
	    $(*D) and the like are non-POSIX. Unfortunately, the make
	    implementations which do not correctly implement all the POSIX
	    variables are not detected, but this seems to have little impact
	    in practice. (bug#9587)
	  - Pass libtool tags OBJC and OBJCXX for the respective languages.
	    (bug#67539)
	  - distcleancheck ignores "silly rename" files (.nfs* .smb* .__afs*)
	    that can show up on network file systems.
	    (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2022-09/msg00002.html)
	  - Pass any options given to AM_PROG_LEX on to AC_PROG_LEX.
	    (bug#65600, bug#65730)
	  - aclocal: recognize ; as path separator on OS/2 and Windows. (bug#71534)
	  - Hash iterations with external effects now consistently sort keys.
	    (bug#25629, bug#46744)
	  - tests: avoid some declaration conflicts for lex et al. on SunOS.
	    (bug#34151 and others)
	  - tests: declare yyparse before use and use (void) parameter lists
	    instead of (), to placate C23. (bug#71425)
	  - Typos in code and other doc fixes. (bug#68003, bug#68004, et al.)
	* Obsolescence:
	  - py-compile no longer supports Python 0.x or 1.x versions.  Python 2.0,
	    released in 2000, is currently the minimum required version.
