Bug#28552: work around

This bug is caused by autoconf and its related scripts being at version
2.13
Fix this by installing autoconf253.
Then resetting the symbolic links of autoconf etc to point to the 2.53
versions.
(In effect this is a bug in the install RPM of autoconf253 in that it
should overwrite the links created by autoconf-2.13).

The following simple shell script sets up the links:

#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/bin
ln -i -s autoconf-2.53 autoconf
ln -i -s autoheader-2.53 autoheader
#ln -i -s automake-1.5 automake
ln -i -s autoreconf-2.53 autoreconf
ln -i -s autoscan-2.53 autoscan
ln -i -s autoupdate-2.53 autoupdate

Note that automake needs to be at version 1.4 not 1.5 (1.5 causes
further errors to be generated).

With this mod in place a Mini project create works quickly and with no
errors.
