If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call stack if relevant. I am currently at this state of affairs because I had an error with * Running automake Can't locate Automake/Struct.pm in @INC and after updating Perl 5.8.5 to 5.8.8, I decided to # emerge -C automake without understanding the implications of it. So now I am trying to put them all back. Now nothing will install, its not always an automake error, but I feel its related. I am not sure which information to include with this report. # emerge -Pp automake >>> These are the packages that would be unmerged: sys-devel/automake selected: 1.4_p6 1.6.3 1.7.9-r1 1.8.5-r3 protected: 1.9.6-r2 # emerge --info Portage 2.1_rc1-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.3.4, glibc-2.3.4.20040808-r0,2.6.7 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.7 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.60GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.5.3 distcc 2.18 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] dev-lang/python: 2.2.3-r1, 2.3.4 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r2 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r2 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.4.19-r1, 2.4.22 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.1/share/config /usr/kde/3.2/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/env /usr/kde/3.3/share/config /usr/kde/3.3/shutdown /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/lib/mozilla/defaults/pref /usr/share/config /usr/share/texmf/dvipdfm/config/ /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/config/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/platex/config/ /usr/share/texmf/xdvi/ /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/eselect/compiler /etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=pentium4 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig buildpkg ccache distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/gentoo/ http://www.mirror.ac.uk/mirror/www.ibiblio.org/ ftp://planetmirror.com/pub/gentoo/" LANG="en_GB.utf-8" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="X alsa apache2 apm arts avi berkdb bitmap-fonts cdr cli crypt cups directfb dri dvd dvdr dvdread eds emboss encode foomaticdb fortran gcj gdbm gif gnome gpm gstreamer gtk gtk2 imlib ipv6 isdnlog java jpeg kde libg++ libwww mad mikmod motif mozilla mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls ogg oggvorbis openal opengl oss pam pcre pdflibperl png pppd python qt quicktime readline real reflection samba sdl session snmpspell spl ssl tcpd tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts usb vorbis wmf x86 xine xml2 xmms xorg xv xvid zlib elibc_glibc kernel_linux userland_GNU" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
