kst and automake/autoconf/etc issue.

[Matthew D Truch]

Greetings,

I'd like to package up the newest version of kst (1.5.0), but it seems
that the kst developers didn't quite generate the tarball correctly and
during build it needs automake/autoconf packages installed to compile
(unlike previous versions).  The kst devels aren't too interested in
helping resolve this.  Should I go the lazy route and add the
autoconf/automake BR to the spec so it'll build, or should I attempt to
generate a patch which fixes things.  I'm a complete N00b when it comes
to automake/autoconf, so if you know your way around such systems, I'd
love your help/advice.  

Thanks.


PS - The kst webpage is at:

along with the most recent tarball:
