When I emerge xmms-1.2.7-r11 I got the following after the ./configure portion (or so it looked).... cd . && aclocal aclocal: /usr/share/aclocal/gimpprint.m4: 698: duplicated macro `_AM_PATH_GIMPPRINT_CHECK_REGISTER_DEFAULTS' make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 1 cd . && aclocal aclocal: /usr/share/aclocal/gimpprint.m4: 698: duplicated macro `_AM_PATH_GIMPPRINT_CHECK_REGISTER_DEFAULTS' make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 1 I removed gimp-print-cups and emerges xmms-1.2.7-r11 without any problems. I then needed to re-emerge gimp-print-cups
Actually, this is a bug in automake. Please unmerge automake, rm /usr/share/aclocal-1* then emerge automake
