detailed stdout and stderr output from the attempted emerge of the package in question is available in the gentoo forums post linked earlier, but some relevant snippets are: Configure status: Acceptlock: workaround enabled on this platform Preloading: OK SO_SNDLOWAT: not enabled for this platform select: OK Routeinfo: OK PAM support: OK This software should perform optimally when all the lines above report 'OK'. This is not possible on all platforms.

See the Autoconf documentation. WARNING: `autoconf' is missing on your system. You should only need it if you modified `configure.ac'. You might want to install the `Autoconf' and `GNU m4' packages.

You might have modified some files without having the proper tools for further handling them. Check the `README' file, it often tells you about the needed prerequirements for installing this package. You may also peek at any GNU archive site, in case some other package would contain this missing `automake-1.9' program. make: *** [Makefile.in] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. startup on LiveCD for 2005.0 on AMD64 2. set environment up as directed by handbook, prior to running stage1 bootstrap 3. in make.conf, add USE flag of "socks5" 4. run bootstrap.sh 5. perform emerge --emptytree system as directed by the handbook Actual Results: dante fails to build when performing the emerge --emptytree system, with an unsatisfied dependence on automake (hasn't been built/not available yet) Expected Results: dante should have been built without issue
The Problem is the demendecy on libtool. Simply emerge it and then reemerge dante. It works. (Could be, you have to emerge pam for the "useradd" command)
all dante ebuilds already had DEPEND="... >=sys-devel/automake-1.9" in addition, I've appended sys-devel/libtool for fixing the dependency of libtoolize.
