[Rivet] libRivet dependency mangling during install

[Oldrich Kepka]

I forgot to say that this problem arises on a recent version of
ubuntu. However, a different also ubuntu user doesn't see this
problem. Both use Autoconf 2.69. There are probably other utilities
that drive the exact behaviour, and we are happy to check that, but
would need some hints where to start.

Thanks,
Oldrich
