Created attachment 613614 [details] axel-2.17.7.ebuild No more dependency on txt2man and autoconf-archive The tarball that the other ebuild used didn't have the manpages, but the others they provide have them included. And autoconf-archive seems to be from the "eautoreconf" step that was in the previous. Now, without it everything works.
Upstream is supposed to pick specific files from autoconf-archive to distribute them in their packages. In this case it would probably best be integrated in https://github.com/axel-download-accelerator/axel/blob/master/acinclude.m4 or concatenated into that file after the release. Distributing /usr/share/aclocal/ax_is_release.m4 (even possible through FILESDIR) would be ~3kB whereas installing sys-devel/autoconf-archive would be ~3.4MB.

Now, without it everything works. Sorry, I didn't even see that before I replied.
