dev-lang/python-2.7.2-r3 misses aclocal to compile. From looking at top of python ebuild: *************************************** # Copyright 1999-2011 Gentoo Foundation # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 # $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/dev-lang/python/python-2.7.2-r3.ebuild,v 1.5 2011/10/27 15:58:07 chainsaw Exp $ EAPI="2" WANT_AUTOMAKE="none" ... **************************************** It seems that WANT_AUTOMAKE="none" is not appropriate with the later use of `eautoreconf` in src_prepare() as that call tries to invoke acloal (which has not been pull in as build dependency). Just manually installing automake (which pulls in automake-wrapper) lets python compile.
