O.o
Then this is a bad design choice by whoever decided that there should
be an underscore at that place
Because…
* the package is called autotools-dev
* the commands for use in debian/rules are called
dh_autotools-dev_*config
Always dashes between "autotools" and "dev", but never an underscore.
So I'm not surprised at all that people get that wrong.
I'd rather say this should be fixed in autotools-dev, at least in the
long run -- probably with some backward compatibility, e.g. via some
symlink.

Definitely, at least until this is fixed in autotools-dev.
Anyway, thanks for making me aware of that, I seem to have tons of
packages affected by this future lintian warning.
