Bug Description

Building audio-recorder with automake 1.14 results in strange errors of configure not finding install-sh (which is in .)

The cause is the order of execution / initializing autoconf / automake in configure.ac

An excerpt from a sample build log (easy to 'miss', as it passes on):

During configure:
[ 68s] checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
[ 68s] checking whether build environment is sane... yes
[ 68s] /bin/sh: /home/abuild/missing: No such file or directory
[ 68s] configure: WARNING: 'missing' script is too old or missing
[ 68s] checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /usr/bin/mkdir -p

Then during make install (affects mainly the languages):
[ 74s] done
[ 74s] /bin/sh: /home/abuild/install-sh: No such file or directory
[ 74s] /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file '/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/audio-recorder-1.4-3.2.i386/usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/audio-recorder.mo': No such file or directory
[ 74s] installing cs.gmo as /home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/audio-recorder-1.4-3.2.i386/usr/share/locale/cs/LC_MESSAGES/audio-recorder.mo
[ 74s] /bin/sh: /home/abuild/install-sh: No such file or directory
