Hello, kbuild has automake-1.9 as a dependency. It's actually the only package in my system that still pulls automake-1.9. I've been testing and kbuild-0.1.9998_pre20120806 builds perfectly fine with stable automake-1.11.6. Is there any reason that it still needs automake-1.9? And if not please change it to 1.11 at least. Regards. Reproducible: Always

Confirmed. A test build runs fine with any higher one.
