[23:16] <zChris_> how would i go about to install this package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autoconf/2.72-3 ?
[23:24] <eyeoh> zChris_: are you sure you need to install it?
[23:25] <zChris_> eyeoh: i do not need it, i want it to test a thing
[23:27] <eyeoh> and it has to be the source, and not packaged binary?
[23:27] <zChris_> packaged binary works too as long as its above 2.71
[23:29] <eyeoh> this? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/autoconf/2.72-3/+build/28882657
[23:32] <zChris_> eyeoh: yeah
[23:32] <eyeoh> that was linked from the page you linked
[23:32] <eyeoh> if you ctrl+f "build"
[23:34] <eyeoh> you can pretty much assume that in distro land, nearly everything that's somewhat common is already pre-built and officially available somewhere
[23:34] <eyeoh> there's no real need to look for source
[23:37] <zChris_> thanks
[23:37] <zChris_> is there a way i can add that repo and upgrade autoconf with its dependencies and such ?+
[23:40] <zChris_> maybe i can user ubuntu ocular repo
[23:40] <zChris_> ?
[23:41] <eyeoh> might be worth asking in #ubuntu cause I'm more familiar with debian
[23:44] <zChris_> ill install latet ubuntu, ihink that have 2.72
[23:47] <zChris_> eyeoh: do you use 2.72 autoconf?
[23:58] <eyeoh> nup
[23:58] <eyeoh> zChris_: what are you needing it for?
