Description Diego Elio Pettenò (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

The following ebuilds are found to have broken autotools handling, as they run autotools directly (they never should, instead they should call eautoreconf (or eautoconf or eautomake, _only in some cases_) in autotools.eclass, read http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/autofailure.xml for more information):

vpopmail-5.4.13.ebuild: autoconf || die "reconfigure failed."
vpopmail-5.4.6-r1.ebuild:       autoconf || die "reconfigure failed."

Please cleanup the ebuilds by asking for stable marking, removing obsolete ebuilds with no relevant keywords, or porting the fixes in newer versions (if presents) to properly handle autotools.

Thanks,
Diego

Obsolete ebuilds removed, the only one left in the tree uses eautoreconf.

Thanks.
