Description Maxime Gamboni 2005-06-09 07:24:47 UTC
I was having only a version 1.3 of libtool and emerging flac-1.1.1 failed    
because the --tag option of libtool was not yet implemented. According to    
libtool changelog    
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/libtool/libtool/ChangeLog?rev=1.1220.2.252&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup    
it was introduced in version 1.5.2. I don't know the details of ebuild files    
but I guess there is a dependency missing in it, to libtool-1.5.2. 
 
updating with "emerge libtool" first solved the problem 

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Having version 1.3 of libtool installed,  
2. Attempt to emerge flac-1.1.1 
  
Actual Results:  
libtool complains it does not know about that --tag option

If you have version 1.3, then you have an extremely outdated system. Current
_stable_ version is 1.5.16. Update your system, please.
