media-libs/imlib2-1.1.2 doesn't require autoconf,
but `inherit enlightenment` add autoconf to DEPEND.
Please remove autoconf from DEPEND list in
enlightenment.eclass and add it to individual
ebuilds that need it.

not really worth the hassle

Hum, this is not a big issue for almost all
arches, but on ppc-macos 
DEPEND=">=sys-devel/autoconf-2.58-r3"
blocks entire imlib2-1.1.2 merge.
(We have autoconf-2.57, though)

so update package.provided

not sure how you guys are running on that version ... it was removed from portage long ago

It is not from Portage but from Mac OS X. If we change
package.provided to provide 2.58-r3, how could we
manage if there is a package actually depends on 
>=2.58-r3?

% autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57
