This is on a fresh install I am building using ~amd64. The relevant line of the .out file seems to be ac-wrapper: Autoconf 2.13 doesn't contain autom4te. Either unset WANT_AUTOCONF or don't execute anything that would use autom4te. aclocal-1.8: autom4te failed with exit status: 1 Removing the WANT_* allows it to build but as Alexis points out I get multilib-strict failures. Can anyone else reproduce the failure I am seeing or is it some problem with my new install possibly? cryos@gentoo.org 2007-03-08 17:00:55 0000 Should have thought of this before posting, setting WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.7 fixes it for me and I don't get the multilib-strict failure. Can anyone else confirm this? This is on a fresh ~amd64 (started updating/compiling yesterday). phreak@gentoo.org 2007-03-08 18:13:27 0000 *** Bug 169975 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** phreak@gentoo.org 2007-03-08 18:20:01 0000 (In reply to comment #3) > Should have thought of this before posting, setting WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.7 fixes it > for me and I don't get the multilib-strict failure.
