Created attachment 312623 [details, diff] patch to call eaclocal unconditionally On an ~amd64 system with automake-1.11.5: # emerge zeitgeist-datasources [...] >>> Emerging (1 of 1) gnome-extra/zeitgeist-datasources-0.8.0.1 * zeitgeist-datasources-0.8.0.1.tar.gz RMD160 SHA1 SHA256 size ;-) ...

[ !! ] * Failed Running automake ! * * Include in your bugreport the contents of: * * /var/tmp/portage/gnome-extra/zeitgeist-datasources-0.8.0.1/temp/automake.out automake.out contains the following error: configure.ac:21: the top level configure.ac:7: version mismatch. This is Automake 1.11.5, configure.ac:7: but the definition used by this AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE configure.ac:7: comes from Automake 1.11.1. You should recreate configure.ac:7: aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run automake again This is caused by automake-utils.eclass's failure to call eaclocal before eautoconf/eautomake. The attached patch adds an unconditional eaclocal call and allows zeitgeist-datasources to build.
Patch works here
Patch also fixes build issues with sci-libs/amd and media-libs/libraw. https://paste.lugons.org/show/1264/ https://paste.lugons.org/show/1265/

Ah, vapier finally removed the dumb eaclocal call from within _elibtoolize(). Committed.
