what does `qpkg -I -v auto` show ?
Comment 2 Ix 2003-10-03 14:39:27 UTC 
Damn, I forgot about checking the package:

ix root # qpkg -I -v auto
sys-devel/autoconf-2.57 *
sys-devel/automake-1.7.5-r2 *

I forgot about there being a new version of autoconf because it required
me to downgrade m4, which was needed for something else I can't remember.

I upgraded to autoconf-2.57-r2 and retried merging aalib-1.4_rc4-r2, it worked
fine.

Though there was no indication that autoconf-2.57-r2 was a dependency for
merging aalib, should that be included in aalib's ebuild?
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2003-10-03 15:11:37 UTC 
nah it's a floating bug in autoconf ... which is to say older versions of
autoconf probably work, just not specifically that one, so why lock in the
version you know ? :)
