Emerge starts and runs the precompile scripts, but dies with an error stating that /usr/bin/aclocal-1.9 cannot be found. I check, and indeed, there's a aclocal-1.7 and aclocal-1.10. So I run "ln -s aclocal-1.10 aclocal-1.9" and re-emerge. This time it's automake-1.9. Same drill: "ln -s /usr/bin/automake-1.10 /usr/bin/automake-1.9" and re-emerge. This time it works perfectly. So I guess version 1.9 of those tools is hardcoded in the ebuild or something. Can someone look at that? Thanks! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge -av media-gfx/feh Actual Results: feh won't start compiling Expected Results: feh compiles My portage tree is about 2 weeks old. jakub@gentoo.org 2007-09-05 17:59:08 0000 Post/attach some errors instead of describing them, thanks. jeroenz@gmail.com 2007-09-05 18:10:41 0000 Sorry, I thought that the problem was clear enough.
