Using catalyst to build a stage3 tarball (custom profile), the emerge of attr fails because the package's configure script cannot find GNU libtool installed. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. try to build attr without libtool installed Actual Results: >>> emerge (10 of 92) sys-apps/attr-2.4.7-r1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) attr-2.4.7.src.tar.gz >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking attr-2.4.7.src.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/attr-2.4.7-r1/work * Applying attr-no-man2pages.patch... [ ok ] >>> Source unpacked. creating cache ./config.cache checking for make... /usr/bin/make checking for libtool... no FATAL ERROR: libtool does not seem to be installed. attr cannot be built without a working GNU libtool installation. !!! ERROR: sys-apps/attr-2.4.7-r1 failed. !!! Function econf, Line 365, Exitcode 1 !!! econf failed Expected Results: specified all components that are required to build the package, and then be able to build it. I will happily provice this if you want, but it would be from my host system, not from the chroot in which catalyst was building the package.
Created attachment 32672 [details, diff] adds libtool dependency to attr ebuild A similar patch should be applied to attr-2.4.8.ebuild
thanks Stephen, fixed in portage.
