For some reason when automake-1.9.3 is run during install it fails to produce the Makefile.in from Makefile.am. This is so whether I run 'emerge wavpack' or download the sources from the wavpack website (both version 4.1). Changing the autogen.sh file to explicitly run automake-1.8 (automake-1.8.5-r2 installed), and of course aclocal-1.8 for consitency, fixes the problem. To be clear: with the 1.8 versions the Makefile.in is produced, and the rest of the build process is error free. I should point out that aclocal produces a lot of warnings, but these warnings also occur with aclocal-1.8 and do not seem to affect the build. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge =automake-1.9 if not already installed 2. emerge wavpack 3. observe the resulting no-build Actual Results: You see the aclocal warnings. A little automake output (standard stuff). Then the configure script is run, but after a few checks it tries to generate the Makefile but fails because it cannot find Makefile.in; configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating Makefile config.status: error: cannot find input file: Makefile.in Expected Results: Well, wavpack should build when you run 'emerge wavpack'. I think that's about it.
Fixed in CVS switched to using WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.7
