Autotools and autoconf issues (macro versions)

Good day, all. I’m working on a snap for LFTP using the Autotools plugin.

I first run into:

gettext infrastructure mismatch: using a Makefile.in.in from gettext version 0.19 but the Autoconf macros are from gettext version 0.18

Is there an elegant way to correct this? Or do I need to drop the Autotools plugin and drop down to something like the dump plugin and manually run through the commands to compile?

Then I also run into:

Failed to run 'make -j4' for 'lftp': Exited with code 2.
Verify that the part is using the correct parameters and try again.

I’m not troubleshooting that a ton yet as I have not however clarified if it is caused by the previous error.

Thank you for your time.

So the shipped makefile.in.in was generated with a newer gettext. You could build a newer gettext as a part, as one option.
