i have same problem

this is the full log of autoconf.out
Comment 7 Erik Zeek 2010-05-29 21:55:36 UTC
I added

WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.11"

before the inherits line and in emerged fine.  AM_SILENT_RULES was introduced in atumake-1.11.

This works for me also. Thanks, Erik!

Where exactly did you add WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.11" ? What file? diff please?

OK I found it: 
/usr/portage/sys-apps/parted/parted-2.3.ebuild
Comment 12 Martin Wegner 2010-05-30 11:16:00 UTC
I had the same problem, too. The suggested fix solved it for me.

Same here.

Comment 14 Xavier Miller (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-30 14:46:02 UTC
Hello,

Adding WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.11" before "inherit autotools eutils" worked fine for me!
Comment 15 Cyrius 2010-05-30 15:54:04 UTC
Worked also for me. Thx
Comment 16 Neil Bothwick 2010-05-30 20:13:03 UTC
No need to edit the ebuild, it works fine with

WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.11" emerge --oneshot parted
Comment 17 DrChandra the Gentoo Person 2010-05-30 20:20:52 UTC
The ebuild workaround works for me as well.

This looks like an upstream problem, since it affects Debian too:

http://www.mail-archive.com/parted-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org/msg02408.html

Here is a possible fix example to be applied within the package:

Comment 18 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-31 01:05:18 UTC
Fixed as suggested in comment #7, without a revision bump.

It should be interesting to note that when emerge --depclean has already got rid of =sys-devel/automake-1.10.3, this problem never arises.
