media-sound/lame-3.96.1-r1 fails to compile with latest automake ( 1.10 ) which automatically adds a lame.c to LAME_SOURCES in frontend/ . There is no lame.c source file (instead there is a main.c ) and so the compile fails. I need >= 3.96.1-r1 because of the as-needed fix, to keep ffmpeg working. I changed the recently added WANT_AUTOMAKE from "latest" to "1.9.6" , which on my system results in automake-1.7.9 being used which works correctly. I have retained the 1.9.6 value in the patch since that version could work, I am not sure exactly why portage in this case is ignoring 1.9.6. lame now builds correctly with my patched overlay, as well as ffmpeg. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. install latest automake (1.10) 2. attempt to compile lame-3.96.1-r1 3.
Created attachment 106586 [details, diff] patch to lame-3.96.1-r1 setting a working WANT_AUTOMAKE value
Sticked to 1.7 for lame 3.96.1-r1, newer releases seem to be just fine, thanks for reporting.
