Description:   Opened: 2007-01-05 00:58 0000
The following ebuilds are found to have broken autotools handling, as they run
autotools directly (they never should, instead they should call eautoreconf (or
eautoconf or eautomake, _only in some cases_) in autotools.eclass, read
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/autofailure.xml for more information):

fetchmail-6.2.5.2-r1.ebuild:    sys-devel/autoconf"
fetchmail-6.2.5.2-r1.ebuild:    autoconf
fetchmail-6.3.2.ebuild: sys-devel/autoconf"
fetchmail-6.3.2.ebuild: autoconf
fetchmail-6.3.2-r1.ebuild:      sys-devel/autoconf"
fetchmail-6.3.2-r1.ebuild:      autoconf
fetchmail-6.3.3.ebuild: sys-devel/autoconf"
fetchmail-6.3.3.ebuild: autoconf
fetchmail-6.3.4.ebuild: sys-devel/autoconf"
fetchmail-6.3.4.ebuild: autoconf
fetchmail-6.3.5.ebuild: sys-devel/autoconf"
fetchmail-6.3.5.ebuild: autoconf
fetchmail-6.3.5-r1.ebuild:      sys-devel/autoconf"
fetchmail-6.3.5-r1.ebuild:      autoconf

Please cleanup the ebuilds by asking for stable marking, removing obsolete
ebuilds with no relevant keywords, or porting the fixes in newer versions (if
presents) to properly handle autotools.

Thanks,
Diego

Hah, turns out autoconf is not needed in fetchmail ebuilds, as only patches
that we apply now are to .c files. Call to autoconf, as well as autoconf rdep
removed.

Thanks.
