grep -r "WANT_AUTO...._" /usr/portage/*-* some 'sed' should be enought to do it quickly i think we should get rid of the old syntax everywhere or people new to writing ebuild could write bad ones because of this. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/faq.xml mentions this as well.
this has switched with autoconf 2.48 which isn't marked stable right now
grep -r "WANT_AUTO...._" /usr/portage/*-* | wc -l => 221 grep -r "WANT_AUTO....\s*=" /usr/portage/*-* | wc -l => 27 so, what policy should be adopted ? should autoconf 2.58 become stable ? (i think you meant 2.58, not 2.48)
