hi, is there any update on this one ? I saw the autoconf downgraded in the portage tree (2.60 now) but it did not change anything.
Which version of sys-devel/gettext do you have installed?
Sven I do not have gettext at all. I have not used nls option at all and did not need one. Cheers
Bleh, i should have looked at the emerge --info output, sorry. Sadly we need gettext for an m4 file for rerunning autoconf.
thats bad news, i havent needed that crap for any of the other packages. and my system has been up and running gentoo for the last couple of years now...
This bug is from 2007 and against version that has been removed from portage. None of the current versions run eautoreconf, or any of the other autotools.eclass functions. In fact it's not even inherited. So closing...
