Yeah. This issue gone after upgrade from texinfo-4.13-r2 to -5.2.

*** Bug 520942 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I cannot explain that... the info file is embedded within the tarball and should not be built. Something in timestamps of doc/*.info or doc/*.texi is changes at some point on other computers, while it should not happen. I force regeneration of makeinfo files and added dependency of >=texinfo-5.2. If someone wants to help me to reproduce this so I can fix it properly I will be happy. fixed in gnutls-3.3.7-r1
Hi Alon, Would having the dependency of >=texinfo-5.2, break a compile of other packages that fails to build with >=textinfo-5.0 as they are not slotted? https://bugs.gentoo.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=texinfo E.g. I was hitting Bug 464044, that's why I forced my system to mask >=textinfo-5.0 Cheers, James

Do you want to help me figure out why on your system the makeinfo is running while the files exists on filesystem so we can avoid re-generate these?
(In reply to Alon Bar-Lev from comment #15) > Do you want to help me figure out why on your system the makeinfo is running > while the files exists on filesystem so we can avoid re-generate these? Of course I would like to help. Let me know what you need me to do, any files you need, or commands to run.

Or better is to fix build-aux/mdate-sh. I'm trying to do this, but changes get lost after eautoreconf. =/
Ignore last comment. mdate-sh is a file shipped with automake.
mdate-sh from automake does not reset TZ to UTC and uses timezone of the build environment. I don't know if this is a bug or feature. Setting TZ=UTC in ebuild is a bad workaround, because the timezone used by upstream may change in the future. :) Just to demonstrate what's happening here (net-libs/gnutls-3.3.8): work doc # TZ=UTC-3 ../build-aux/mdate-sh gnutls.texi 29 July 2014 work doc # TZ=UTC-4 ../build-aux/mdate-sh gnutls.texi 30 July 2014

Anyways I have sent a bug report on this to the automake developers so they will hopefully fix this in next releases, on the mean time the setting the TZ solution seems to be the best approach.

TZ=UTC works for 3.3.8, but may stop working for future releases. So this is an extra maintainance work to verify on every version bump that build system do not want to regenerate texinfo files.

i've pushed the patch Debian proposed about a year later to our automake-1.15. it doesn't help with bundled versions, but so it goes. https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=6f826cbd3673375bea652a8ffff906a4b8443e25
