Hi, Agostino,

On 2025-02-25, Sam has stabilized automake-1.17-r1 (Bug #950291).

# grep "api_version=" configure
am__api_version='1.16'                   <-----

hteditor-2.1.1_pre20161206.ebuild does not contain
any dependency requirement upon automake:1.16.

Confirmation:
After emerging =dev-build/automake-1.16.5-r2 (into slot :1.16),
emerge of app-editors/hteditor succeeds.



P.S.:

On https://github.com/sebastianbiallas/ht/,
the latest commit dates Dec 6, 2016 - 9 years ago.

My impression: "unmaintained upstream"

Thanks.
