Description Luca 2007-08-12 16:56:55 UTC 
In the shared-mime-info-0.21-r1 i got an error of autoconf versione

to solve this, eautomake should be changed in eautoreconf (thx to seemant for help)

Reproducible: Always

What error?
Comment 2 Luca 2007-08-12 17:21:21 UTC 
***** automake *****
 
aclocal.m4:17: error: this file was generated for autoconf 2.61.
You have another version of autoconf.  If you want to use that,
you should regenerate the build system entirely.
aclocal.m4:17: the top level
autom4te-2.60: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 63
automake-1.10: autoconf failed with exit status: 63

Sorry i thought I paste it.

I am using just stable package..
Comment 3 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-08-12 17:34:24 UTC 
So upgrade your autoconf to 2.61.

Eric,

please post your emerge --info and the log for the emerge.
I can also emerge share-mime-info-0.22 with autoconf-2.61-r1.
Comment 6 Eric Brown 2007-08-29 01:31:39 UTC 
I just ran into this on a fresh system, I changed eautomake to eautoreconf, and it solved the autoconf version problem, HOWEVER, I ran into the XML:Parser problem after that.  I have the latest version os autoconf installed (2.61), I also tried 0.22 for shared-mime-info.

Anyway, I solved that problem by remerging XML-Parser and intltool, then and only then did shared-mime-info rebuild.

Any ideas why this happened?
Comment 7 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2007-08-29 01:40:00 UTC 
Please check your emerge logs as I suspect you updated expat and didn't run revdep-rebuild to fix the broken links.
Comment 8 Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (RETIRED) Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev 2007-08-29 01:58:45 UTC 
Luca,

can you please confirm if your issue was caused by an updated expat?
Comment 9 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2007-08-29 21:12:33 UTC 
Great, so one guy has outdated autoconf and the other failed to run revdep-rebuild... Why's this bug open?
