'emerge xmms' tries to update to xmms-1.2.7-r8, fails:  
  
 ------- cut ------

The conflicting file seems to be '/usr/share/aclocal/dvdnav.m4', which is part  
of 'media-libs/libdvdnav-0.1.1'.

Az, I can verify this. I solved it on my box by actually removing that dvdnav.m4
file, but there is sure a cleaner way?

With which .m4 does /usr/share/aclocal/dvdnav.m4 conflict ?

Comment 3 Johannes Krause 2002-06-21 15:48:10 UTC

another one: media-libs/aalib-1.4_rc4-r2, same error.    
After moving /usr/share/aclocal/dvdnav.m4 away all updates complete 
successfully. 
 
'locate .m4 | xargs grep AM_PATH_DVDNAV' shows 2 files: 
/usr/share/aclocal/dvdnav.m4		(part of media-libs/libdvdnav-0.1.0) 
/usr/share/aclocal-1.4/dvdnav.m4	(part of media-libs/libdvdnav-0.1.1) 
 
Diff shows no difference between the 2 files. 
 
I am no programmer, maybe the double-existance of this file is the reason of 
the error. 
'emerge clean' does not remove the old version of libdvdnav.

Its a problem with automake itself ... "aclocal --print-ac-dir" should not
print the version specific dir, but rather just "/usr/share/aclocal".  This
is true for aclocal-1.4 and aclocal-1.5 ... aclocal-1.6 works fine though.

Ok, automake-1.6.1-r5 should fix this.  You will have to remerge affected
packages though :(
