Mike, thanks for the bug report. Which version of sys-devel/automake do you have installed?
# qpkg -i automake sys-devel/automake-1.7.5-r2 * [...] no other versions are installed
I've had a closer look at automake setup, and it seems that it was my fault. I had export WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.5 in my .bashrc (for some software I'm developing that needs 1.5) unsetting this (so automake-1.4-p6 is used) and doing an emerge solves the problem. I hang my head in shame... Mike
Nice catch Mike. :) The best bugs are those that are resolved by the user. ;)
