Description Sal Gonzalez 2011-08-02 17:56:38 UTC

On a fresh install, configure step fails on missing autoconf.

Reproducible: Always

Please post emerge --info and attach the build log (standard bug procedure).

It builds just fine for me without autotools installed.

Comment 2 Sal Gonzalez 2011-08-05 19:51:42 UTC

Didn't save the build.log... This was on a fresh stage3 install.  Going through my emerge.log I see the crash, then the install of autoconf (pulls in autoconf-wrapper and m4) then the re-attempt at installing rcs working... Unmerging autoconf, autoconf-wrapper and m4 now and attempting to re-emerge rcs does not reproduce the bug...

That's no use.
