m4/glib-gettext.m4:39: error: m4_copy: won't overwrite defined macro: glib_DEFUN
m4/glib-gettext.m4:39: the top level
autom4te-2.69: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal-1.15: error: echo failed with exit status: 1

Looks like bug 580302.

In that case per https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=c13b5e88c6e9c7bd2698d844cb5ed127ed809f7e the fix is to nuke the shipped m4/glib-gettext.m4 prior to running eautoreconf:

	# Prevent m4_copy error when running aclocal
	# m4_copy: won't overwrite defined macro: glib_DEFUN
	rm m4/glib-gettext.m4 || die

This seems to work fine here.

I can confirm that glib-gettext.m4 fixes this.

Any news? gnote-3.18.1 still does not compile.
Comment 5 Alexandre Rostovtsev (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2016-06-19 20:47:53 UTC 
Fixed in git without a revision bump. Sorry for the long wait!
