When I try to install sim 0.9.1 using the 'emerge -uvD world' command I get the following error: config.status: creating config.h config.status: executing depfiles commands cd . && \ /bin/sh /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/admin/missing --run automake-1.7 --foreign ./Makefile configure.in:78: warning: AC_CANONICAL_HOST invoked multiple times autoconf/specific.m4:363: AC_CYGWIN is expanded from... configure.in:78: the top level configure.in:39: version mismatch.

A workaround (I had the same problem with sim-0.9.2) is to use # WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.7" emerge sim
I did this: 'WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.7" emerge -u sim' and get the same result. tried it on two systems...
well... I just updated to kernel 2.6.1 and now I get the following error. /bin/install -c -p -m 644 uk.gmo /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image//usr/share/locale/uk/LC_MESSAGES/sim.mo mkdir /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image/usr/share/locale/uk mkdir /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image/usr/share/locale/uk/LC_MESSAGES /bin/install -c -p -m 644 zh_TW.gmo /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image//usr/share/locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES/sim.mo mkdir /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image/usr/share/locale/zh_TW mkdir /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image/usr/share/locale/zh_TW/LC_MESSAGES make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/po' make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/po' Making install in plugins/__homedir make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/plugins/__homedir' make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/plugins/__homedir' make[2]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. /bin/sh ../../admin/mkinstalldirs /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image//usr/share/apps/sim/plugins mkdir /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image/usr/share/apps mkdir /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image/usr/share/apps/sim mkdir /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image/usr/share/apps/sim/plugins /bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --mode=install /bin/install -c -p __homedir.la /var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/image//usr/share/apps/sim/plugins/__homedir.la libtool: install: warning: remember to run `libtool --finish /usr/share/apps/sim/plugins' make install-data-hook make[3]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/plugins/__homedir' rm -rf /usr/share/apps/sim/plugins/__homedir.la ACCESS DENIED unlink: /usr/share/apps/sim/plugins/__homedir.la rm: cannot remove `/usr/share/apps/sim/plugins/__homedir.la': Permission denied make[3]: *** [install-data-hook] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/plugins/__homedir' make[2]: *** [install-data-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/plugins/__homedir' make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/sim-0.9.1/work/sim-0.9.1/plugins/__homedir' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 !!!

I got the same error with kernel 2.4 after I tried WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.7" emerge sim
Confirmed, also have access denied error.
please mark as "~x86", because "emerge -uvD world" tries to compile every time you run it...
Ive commited some fixes to 0.9.1 and 0.9.2. Please re-emerge if you have problems and report failure/success here.
Success now upgrading sim from 0.8.3 --> 0.9.2
Sorry, that is to 0.9.1 I had success, not 0.9.2
how do I know if I have the updated ebuilds? I just did an "emerge sync", but still get the same error...
just did it once more and it workes!!
Markus: Check the header in the ebuild, it says when the ebuild was commited to CVS. Closing bug, thanks for reporting this!
