corretto17@17.0.14.7.1 fails to build due to missing autoconf dependency

[icorbett]

Package name

corretto17@17.0.14.7.1

What changes are you requesting?

With an existing and seemingly stable devbox install using Determinate Nix, I attempted to add corretto17(@latest) along with pre-commit(@latest) to a newly initialized project. This resulted in an error that leads me to believe the 'first-pass' install is dependent on autoconf as an undeclared dependency.

% devbox add corretto17 pre-commit
