As a workaround, setting WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.12 lets the build succeed.

I've added a patch to my overlay to fix this issue[1].

[Comment 2 Michael Orlitzky 2014-11-22 22:17:29 UTC]

This has been fixed in nagios-plugins-2.0.3 (just committed), but of course the older stable packages will still have the problem until they can be removed.

[Comment 3 Michael Orlitzky 2015-08-31 14:32:30 UTC]

The 1.4.x series has been removed, leaving only versions where this is fixed.
