Description:   Opened: 2005-03-20 09:11 0000 
Emerging libusb-0.1.10a results in:

>>> Unpacking libusb-0.1.10a.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/libusb-0.1.10a/work
aclocal-1.9: `configure.ac' or `configure.in' is required

Looking at the ebuild, I see some special casing is done for macos, and that it is also done for generic PPC...

So, I changed line 23 from:
	if use ppc || use ppc-macos ; then
to:
	if use ppc-macos ; then

I don't know if this is the correct fix, but it did allow me to emerge successfuly.

Reproducible: Always

Yes, I can confirm this error.  And I can also confirm the fix.

The same here (on Gentoo-PPC): same error, and the fix worked

I also can confirm this error, and the proposed fix solves it.
Running gentoo-ppc 2004.3 on a Powerbook DVI 667MHz.
