/var/tmp/portage/net-proxy/squid-3.5.27-r1/work/squid-3.5.27/cfgaux/missing: line 81: aclocal-1.15: command not found
WARNING: 'aclocal-1.15' is missing on your system.
         You should only need it if you modified 'acinclude.m4' or
         'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
         The 'aclocal' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
         <https://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
         It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
         <https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
         <https://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
         <https://www.perl.org/>
make[1]: *** [Makefile:539: aclocal.m4] Error 127
```

file `./libltdl/aclocal.m4` explicitly depends on version 1.15, hence the error. Adding "sys-devel/automake:1.15" to ebuild DEPEND correctly pulls in that version to another slot, and build succeeds.

I guess it works for you if you install automake-1.15 manually?

Comment 2 Liam Dennehy 2019-03-22 11:00:44 UTC

More accurately: It works if some other package happens to have that version pulled in.

I don't see any reason to manually install a build chain package, and if this package explicitly depends on exactly one version of another package, it should DEPEND explicitly.
