When trying to emerge -u world, openmotif is first on the list.  Here's the output:

You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal.
am-wrapper: /usr/bin/aclocal-1.4 is missing or not executable.
            Please try emerging the correct version of automake.

!!! ERROR: x11-libs/openmotif-2.2.3 failed.
!!! Function src_unpack, Line 59, Exitcode 1
!!! (no error message)
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, NOT this status message.

---------------------------------------.

*  sys-devel/autoconf :
        [  I] 2.13 (2.1)

--------------------------------------
When running aclocal, I get the following:
aclocal-1.9: `configure.ac' or `configure.in' is required

Here's my aclocal:
bash-2.05b# ls -l /usr/bin/aclocal*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root    25 Feb 10 23:53 /usr/bin/aclocal -> ../lib/misc/am-wrapper.sh

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root root 20632 Feb 10 19:41 /usr/bin/aclocal-1.9
------------------------------
I've tried re-emerging autoconf, automake, automake-wrapper, and autoconf-wrapper, but none seem to work.  Is there anything else I need to do?

Comment 1 Roland Bär 2005-02-11 00:45:21 UTC
Re-emerge:
emerge =automake-1.4_p6
Comment 2 Mint Shows 2005-02-11 01:04:53 UTC
re-emerged automake-1.4 as suggested and it works.  Thanks!
Comment 3 Roland Bär 2005-02-11 01:13:24 UTC
I'm quite sure with the recent auto*trouble, that it's not your fault, this will happen again.
WORKSFORME would have been more correct, at least the underlying reason most likely
still around....
