As of version 2.2, one of the line of libtool init macro is: m4_pattern_forbid([^_?LT_[A-Z_]+$]) This means that i.e. LT_AGE is not allowed as a variable name, unless it's either explicitly m4_pattern_allow'ed or is AC_SUBST'ed (which does, among others m4_pattern_allow(^$1$) ). dirtyepic@gentoo.org 2008-04-29 03:17:12 0000 i'd like to wait and see how upstream fixes this. luis@itaapy.com 2008-05-01 10:41:10 0000 I had the same error on a fresh install Messages for package media-libs/fontconfig-2.5.0-r1: * * ERROR: media-libs/fontconfig-2.5.0-r1 failed. * Call stack: * ebuild.sh, line 49: Called src_compile * environment, line 2556: Called die * The specific snippet of code: * emake || die * The die message: * (no error message) * * If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. * A complete build log is located at '/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/fontconfig-2.5.0-r1/temp/build.log'. * The ebuild environment file is located at '/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/fontconfig-2.5.0-r1/temp/environment'. * pva@gentoo.org 2008-05-04 13:29:06 0000 Thank you for report Alessandro!
