I tested and found out that 'touch' does change the date and time of a file

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge nautilus
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
nautilus was configured, but make entered into an infinite loop

Expected Results:  
nautilus should have emerged

nautilus is not a very fun game.

[Comment 2 Kimmo Sundqvist 2004-03-17 23:07:52 UTC]

Recompiling the whole system (meaning "emerge world -e") fixed the underlying problem.
