Description Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-12 17:42:39 UTC
Let's make a tracker to record ebuilds that still do not fix the problem of 
"install: will not overwrite just-created [...]" that happens only when automake-1.10 and coreutils-8.4 are combined and unleashed upon a Makefile.{am|in} that lists a single installation target twice.
Comment 1 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2010-05-13 19:40:21 UTC
Should be automake 1.11 - only then will an autoremake detect newer coreutils which is multi-install safe.
Comment 2 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2012-05-30 21:46:49 UTC
this is pretty much all set, and we've stabilized newer versions of both coreutils and automake, so anything still not fixed should probably be tree cleaned
