Additional context

If I add execute_process(COMMAND touch ${SOURCE_PATH}/config.rpath) immediately before vcpkg_configure_make then the configuration completes fine

@adelpit, I can't repro this issue locally. It may be a autoconf issue, what's the version of autoconf in you machine?

This issue affects 2 PRs(#16577 and #15787) now, I removed gettext in local test machine, however I still can't repro locally.

@vicroms, could you please take a look?

[autoantwort]

@adelpit I don't know autoconf, but does it help if you run autoupdate as suggested in the output?

[autoantwort]

@PhoebeHui #17057 and #17098 have a similar background, maybe the autoconf installation is broken? Because the pipeline failures are new and it worked a few weeks/days ago and there were problems with the mac pipelines (some machines were down, they are online again since a few days (discussed on discord with @strega-nil))

[PhoebeHui]

@autoantwort, we would apply the workaround via PR #17083 in baseline, we will rerun the relate PRs after the PR merged. It should be a autoconf issue, however, we don't have a better solution currently.
