on a stage 1 install coreutils fails to compile after "Reconfiguring configure scripts" this is because am-wrapper is trying to find aclocal-1.8 instead of the installed aclocal-1.9 emerging automake 1.8 solves this. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

you neglected to post `emerge info` like the bug report page says to also, post the error

ok ...
sys-devel/automake: 1.8.5-r1, 1.9.3 that is wrong, you need to do `emerge automake-wrapper` to fix your system
