CHROOT - gauss ~ # cat /var/tmp/portage/aspell-0.60.4/temp/aclocal-783.out ***** aclocal ***** am-wrapper: /usr/bin/aclocal-1.6 is missing or not executable. Please try emerging the correct version of automake. This can be solved by adding this line before "inherit autotools": WANT_AUTOMAKE="latest"
Error on my side of the line: It must be WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.9"
Done; in CVS - thanks zzam.
