Hi,

Hmmmm, I was already afraid of this to happen.  Running
  /auto/vestec1-elixir/projects/biocev/mmokrejs/gentoo/bin/bash ./bootstrap-prefix.sh "/auto/vestec1-elixir/projects/biocev/mmokrejs/gentoo" stage3
somewhere failed :(  Details might be found in the build log:
  /auto/vestec1-elixir/projects/biocev/mmokrejs/gentoo/var/tmp/portage/sys-devel/m4-1.4.19-r2/temp/build.log
I have no clue, really.  Please find friendly folks in #gentoo-prefix on
irc.gentoo.org, gentoo-alt@lists.gentoo.org mailing list, or file a bug
at bugs.gentoo.org under Gentoo/Alt, Prefix Support.  This is most
inconvenient, and it crushed my ego.  Sorry, I give up.
Should you want to give it a try, there is /auto/vestec1-elixir/projects/biocev/mmokrejs/gentoo/stage3.log

Comment 6 Martin Mokrejš 2023-08-01 09:44:49 UTC
The order or packages is wrong. Here is from stage3.log the package order. Note sys-devel/autoconf-wrapper-20221207-r1 appears quite early but much further is sys-devel/m4-1.4.19-r2 and finally later on comes sys-devel/autoconf-2.71-r7 itself. Looks like sys-devel/m4-1.4.19-r2 should depend on sys-devel/autoconf .

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Comment 9 Martin Mokrejš 2023-08-01 14:48:54 UTC
My FIX:

I added 4 lines with zlib bzip2 perl autoconf to bootstrap-prefix.sh . Maybe zlib was not needed but I was not certain whether perl build failed due to missing zlib.h or bzlib.h due to some TTY controling chars I was not sure if it is bzlib.h or zlib.h.

I did not investigate whether either zlib or bzip2 was unnecessary. Also, one of the two places where sys-devel/autoconf-wrapper is installed is also possibly unnecessary but the "emerge -uN1" makes it a cosmetic issue.
Comment 11 Mike Gilbert gentoo-dev 2023-08-03 14:25:06 UTC
The m4 build system should not be calling autoheader at all.

There is code in the gentoo ebuild specifically to avoid this:

    # touch generated files after patching m4, to avoid activating maintainer
    # mode
    # remove when loong-fix-build.patch is no longer necessary
    touch ./aclocal.m4 ./lib/config.hin ./configure ./doc/stamp-vti || die
    find . -name Makefile.in -exec touch {} + || die


You should focus on figuring out why maintainer mode is being triggered on prefix.
