I notice that with a recent change to automake-1.9 you have adjusted the priorities so that 1.9 is the default, instead of 1.4. However this still does not solve many of the problems people have had in Ubuntu, so we've proposed a specification to transition the archive to the newest Automake and drop 1.4.

As the Debian maintainer, we'd really appreciate your opinion on this;
especially as there are several options listed which we have yet to
choose between.
Obviously any work we do will have the patches for all packages
(including depending ones) supplied both to you and to the respective
maintainers, so that there is a minimum amount of work to get it into
Debian.
Many thanks in advance,
Scott
