Hi all, it seems I have no "/usr/bin/aclocal" file. I do have several versions
of automake installed and they seemed to work. There is just no "aclocal" file
(or symbolic link?):

[ 11:51 itchy ~ ] ls -l /usr/bin/aclocal*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        11405 Aug 24 12:37 /usr/bin/aclocal-1.4
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        12731 Aug 24 12:39 /usr/bin/aclocal-1.5
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        12596 Aug 24 12:40 /usr/bin/aclocal-1.6
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        12387 Aug 24 12:49 /usr/bin/aclocal-1.7
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        19345 Aug 24 12:50 /usr/bin/aclocal-1.8
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        19848 Sep  7 11:43 /usr/bin/aclocal-1.9

Should I manually setup a symvolic link?
Which file should be the target then?

Thanks in advance!
Greetings, Matthias

PS: I tried to re-emerge automake, but that wasn't the solution...

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
(I have nothing to do, file is just missing)

/usr/bin/aclocal is provided by sys-devel/automake-wrapper. Try re-emerging that.
