Description Dean Bailey 2002-08-15 09:15:28 UTC 
the "patch -p0 <${FILESDIR}/${PN}-1.4_p5-ignore-duplicates.patch || die"
line causes automake 1.6.1-r6 to fail to install. I found that just commenting 
it out made automake install properly. This is on sparc64 with the 2.0 profile.

So I see ;)....I checked autoconf too:

*  sys-devel/autoconf
      Latest version Available: 2.53a
      Latest version Installed: 2.53a
      Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html
      Description: Used to create autoconfiguration files

*  x11-misc/Xautoconfig [ Masked ]

lappy rosegarden # autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13
lappy rosegarden #

It has two patches too...Can anyone tell me/us why ? (There's no comment about
it :'-(


Regards,

Rigo

I found this in the am-wrapper it starts:


# Executes the correct autoconf version.
#
# - defaults to automake-1.4
# - runs automake-1.6 if it exists and...
#    - envvar WANT_AUTOMAKE_1_6 is set to `1'
# - runs automake-1.5 if it exists and...
#    - envvar WANT_AUTOMAKE_1_5 is set to `1'
# or - configure.ac is present
# or - `configure.in' contains AC_PREREQ and the value's 3 first letters
#      are stringwise greater than '2.1'



So I did :
lappy automake # export WANT_AUTOMAKE_1_6=1
lappy automake # automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.6.1
