Description Martin Väth 2010-04-01 07:41:21 UTC 
The default WANT_AUTOMAKE ("latest") generates the dependeny
  || ( sys-devel/automake )
without a version number. This is probably not the aim of the code:
The corresponding code generates a different dependency in a variable t
which is forgotten:

t="" ; for v in ${_LATEST_AUTOMAKE} ; do
	t="${t} =sys-devel/automake-${v}*"
done
unset t v
_automake_atom="|| ( ${_automake_atom} )" 

I suppose that the last two lines should be instead:

_automake_atom="|| ( ${t} )"
unset t v

Robin, while I can understand the urgency of unbreaking autobuild, but next time could you _please_ wait before committing something to autotools.eclass that changes the whole dependency handling?

I _think_ I fixed it properly with 1.96 but I'd rather for someone else to test this before marking the bug as FIXED.

bah, I missed committed the wrong version back.

RESO TEST-REQUEST is intended exactly for this case.
