sys-devel/autoconf-2.57-r1 is installed.

What's the result of autoconf --version?

Comment 2 Sebastian Bergmann (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

2003-07-21 04:05:55 UTC

Autoconf version 2.13

But shouldn't the auto* wrappers take care of this?

Comment 3 Patrick Kursawe (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

2003-07-21 04:53:15 UTC

Should. What's the result of
 ls -l /usr/bin/autoconf*
on your system?

Please include config.log from
/var/tmp/portage/automake-1.7.5-r2/work/automake-1.7.5/ :

  # FEATURES="noclean" emerge automake

will not clean the build dir ...

I re-emerged the File-Spec package and the problem is gone now.

Comment 8 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Ok, great.  Probably due to recent perl issue that *should* be fixed now.
