Description Tim Cera 2006-11-02 14:57:37 UTC
When updating world, my list includes net-misc/openssh-4.4_p1-r5.  The emerge fails with:

...
 * Running autoconf ...                                                   [ !! ]

 * Failed Running autoconf !
 *
 * Include in your bugreport the contents of:
 *
 *   /var/tmp/portage/openssh-4.4_p1-r5/temp/autoconf-8164.out
...

The contents of /var/tmp/portage/openssh-4.4_p1-r5/temp/autoconf-8164.out are:
----
***** autoconf *****

ac-wrapper: /usr/bin/autoconf-2.59 is missing or not executable.
            Please try emerging the correct version of autoconf.
----

I am going to see why I don't have the latest autoconf and try again.

Thanks,
Tim

This is what I have for autoconf.

emerge -s autoconf
Searching...

So I guess my autoconf is too new?
Comment 2 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-11-03 00:52:10 UTC
Your autoconf-wrapper is outdated, you need 3.2-r2

Jakub, thanks, but no cigar...

I went ahead and...

> emerge autoconf-wrapper automake-wrapper

and no joy.

It now fails with an error message:

It works just perfectly fine here; post your emerge --info.
