Thanks for the report about the broken link into the automake-history
documentary. After a mere seven years :), I've added a .symlinks entry
in the automake web repository, so it resolves now. Closing ...
--thanks again, karl.

P.S. For the record, the same place in the mono automake.html,
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Dependencies
  links to
https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake-history.html#Dependency-Tracking-Evolution
  which then redirects to
https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/automake/history/automake-history.html#Dependency-Tracking-Evolution
  which as I recall is done as special cases in the web server setup by
  FSF sysadmin. Anyway, does not look optimal, but it works, so fine :).

Dear GNU Hackers,

The dependencies page¹ of autotools links to a non-existing page²:

¹:
http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Dependencies.html#Dependencies

²:
http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake-history/Dependency-Tracking-Evolution.html#Dependency-Tracking-Evolution

(I just hit that broken link while searching for solutions and thought
that it’s best to report it)

Best wishes,
Arne
