When I try to emerge x11-misc/ttmkfdir if fails during compilation fase with libtool complaining about --tag Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge x11-misc/ttmkfdir Actual Results: >>> Source unpacked. libtool --mode=compile g++ -Wall -pedantic -I/usr/include/freetype2 -Os -march=pentium3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -o ttmkfdir.o -c ttmkfdir.cpp libtool --mode=compile g++ -Wall -pedantic -I/usr/include/freetype2 -Os -march=pentium3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -o directory.o -c directory.cpp libtool: compile: unable to infer tagged configuration libtool: compile: specify a tag with `--tag' make: *** [ttmkfdir.o] Error 1 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... libtool: compile: unable to infer tagged configuration libtool: compile: specify a tag with `--tag' make: *** [directory.o] Error 1 !!! ERROR: x11-misc/ttmkfdir-3.0.9-r2 failed. !!! Function src_compile, Line 39, Exitcode 2 !!! emake failed Expected Results: Emerged x11-misc/ttmkfdir The same behaviour is seen on a similar installation where the same (version) ebuild is succesfully emerged previuosly. I'm running ~x86 on both machines and they are fully updated (the first one being recently installed).
