Unfortunately, the Debian Stable/Testing/Unstable uses autoconf 2.71[1], so it is not possible to upload the newer version of axel. Please, consider downgrading autoconf version to allow the regular upload plus a possible backport to stable.

@eribertomota Any ideas on how to deal with the changes in AC_PROG_CC
?
Sorry, I have no ideas about this point.
@ismaell We're building the snap package and even with autoconf 2.72
it's complaining about the necessary version of autoconf.

So... clarifying once again:
Just clarifying because adding some backwards compatibility isn't going to fix a broken approach to builds.
@eribertomota have you tried making override_dh_autoreconf
a no-op?
