Had the same happen on a couple of fresh installs lately. Problem is always solved by performing an: emerge --oneshot =sys-devel/automake-1.8.5-r3 I assume it's just a dependency problem and the ebuild should depend on automake-1.8.
(In reply to comment #3) > the ebuild should depend on automake-1.8. Correct, installing automake-1.8 solves the problem here, please update the ebuild
Been fixed quite some time ago. WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.8" WANT_AUTOCONF="latest" inherit libtool eutils autotools
