Emerge of gaim-1.1.4 fails during configure: checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... configure: error: newly created file is older than distributed files! Check your system clock Previous to this, I also get the following error, for about 75 different files. tar: gaim-1.1.4/intl/dcgettext.c: time stamp 2005-02-25 02:43:26 is 8008 s in the future Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.emerge gaim 2. 3. Actual Results: ebuild fails. Seems to be a timestamp problem, so I deleted the /var/tmp/portage/gaim-1.1.4 directory, and tried again. Same result. Expected Results: Emerge gaim!

"uname -v = #1 Sat Feb 5 12:03:12 Local time zone must be set--see zic manua" That looks suspicious. Have you set your timezone correctly? And if so, what is it set to? I just merged gaim-1.1.4 now, and I didnt get any timestamp-related errors, so its most likely something on your end.
Yeah this is something with the date/time setting on your machine. I'll hold off on marking INVALID until you get it fixed.
Changed /etc/conf.d/clock to 'local', set local time symlink and restarted /etc/init.d/clock. Gaim now emerged correctly. Strange that no other ebuilds have failed due to UTC being used....?
