Description drantin 2008-04-12 05:13:26 UTC 
compiling any version of libgdiplus with autoconf-2.62 fails

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use autconf-2.62
2. attempt to install libgdiplus-1.2.4 1.2.5 or 1.2.6
3. watch it fail

Actual Results:  
***** aclocal *****
***** aclocal

configure.in:69: error: AC_SUBST: `FONTCONFIG-CONFIG' is not a valid shell variable name
../../lib/autoconf/programs.m4:178: AC_PATH_PROG is expanded from...
configure.in:69: the top level
autom4te-2.62: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal-1.10: autom4te failed with exit status: 1

Expected Results:  
a happy compile

downgrading autoconf to 2.61-r1 results in a clean compile.

No idea if that's correct solution but this helped here :)

Diego told me it's right and to block the autoconf 2.62 tracker bug...

The patch works for me, with autoconf-2.62.

Is this going upstream or are there major compatibility issues?
This is the third or fourth autoconf-2.62 bug I've come across in the last few days as I've been running emerge -uD world.
Comment 4 Thomas Zwaagstra 2008-06-01 01:30:37 UTC 
nice patch.  Added it to my local overlay and solved the problem
Comment 5 Jurek Bartuszek (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-01 01:38:05 UTC 
Do you suffer from this bug in 1.9 without the patch as well?
Comment 6 Jurek Bartuszek (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-06-01 01:47:23 UTC 
Never mind, fixed in 1.2.4 and 1.9, thanks!
