DESCRIPTION

      Run  `autoconf'  (and  `autoheader', `aclocal', `automake', `autopoint' (formerly `gettextize'), and `libtoolize'
      where appropriate) repeatedly to remake the GNU Build System files in specified DIRECTORIES and their subdirecto-
      ries (defaulting to `.').
 
      By  default,  it  only remakes those files that are older than their sources.  If you install new versions of the
      GNU Build System, you can make `autoreconf' remake all of the files by giving it the `--force' option.

Operation modes:

      -h, --help
             print this help, then exit
 
      -V, --version
             print version number, then exit
 
      -v, --verbose
             verbosely report processing
 
      -d, --debug
             don't remove temporary files
 
      -f, --force
             consider all files obsolete
 
      -i, --install
             copy missing auxiliary files
 
      --no-recursive
             don't rebuild sub-packages
 
      -s, --symlink
             with -i, install symbolic links instead of copies
 
      -m, --make
             when applicable, re-run ./configure && make
 
      -W, --warnings=CATEGORY
             report the warnings falling in CATEGORY [syntax]

Warning categories include:

      `cross'
             cross compilation issues
 
      `gnu'  GNU coding standards (default in gnu and gnits modes)
 
      `obsolete'
             obsolete features or constructions
 
      `override'
             user redefinitions of Automake rules or variables
 
      `portability'
             portability issues
 
      `syntax'
             dubious syntactic constructs (default)
 
      `unsupported'
             unsupported or incomplete features (default)
 
      `all'  all the warnings
 
      `no-CATEGORY'
             turn off warnings in CATEGORY
 
      `none' turn off all the warnings
 
      `error'
             treat warnings as errors
 
      The environment variable `WARNINGS' is honored.  Some subtools might support other warning types, using `all'  is
      encouraged.

      -B, --prepend-include=DIR
             prepend directory DIR to search path
 
      -I, --include=DIR
             append directory DIR to search path
