sdesc: "stable version of the automatic configure script builder"
ldesc: "Autoconf is an extensible package of m4 macros that produce shell
scripts to automatically configure software source code packages.
These scripts can adapt the packages to many kinds of UNIX-like
systems without manual user intervention.  Autoconf creattes a
configuration script for a package from a template file that lists the
operating system features that the package can use, in the form of m4
macro calls.

Autoconf-stable contains autoconf-2.13, and is meant to be installed
alongside autoconf-devel (which contains autoconf-2.5x) and alongside
the 'autoconf' package, which contains wrapper scripts which call the 
appropriate 'real' autoconf, stable or devel, based on target package
heuristics."
