can`t compile automake Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge system 2. emerge autoconf Actual Results: When i give emerge system and crash... checking whether autoconf is installed... no configure: error: Autoconf 2.58 or better is required. so i give emerge autoconf... and emerge 1/15 and try compile automake... and crash again with this same error: checking whether autoconf is installed... no configure: error: Autoconf 2.58 or better is required. So Automake need autoconf to compile :) Autoconf need automake to compile :) livecd root # emerge info Portage 2.0.51.19 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.3.5-20050130, glibc-2.3.4.20041102-r1, 2.6.11-gentoo-r3 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-gentoo-r3 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.60GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.6.12 Python: dev-lang/python-2.3.4-r1 [2.3.4 (#1, Mar 10 2005, 18:18:11)] dev-lang/python: 2.3.4-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: [Not Present] sys-devel/autoconf: [Not Present] sys-devel/automake: 1.5 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: [Not Present] virtual/os-headers: 2.6.8.1-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-Os -march=pentium4 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache distlocks sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/pub/Linux/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.du.se/pub/os/gentoo/ ftp://ftp.tu-clausthal.de/pub/linux/gentoo/ ftp://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirrors/gentoo/ http://gentoo.tiscali.nl/gentoo/ http://ftp.easynet.nl/mirror/gentoo/ http://www.gigaload.org/gentoo.org/" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X aalib acpi acpi4linux alsa arts audiofile autofs avi berkdb bidi bitmap-fonts cdinstall cdparanoia crypt css cups devfs dga divx4linux doc emboss encode escreen fbcon flac flash foomaticdb fortran gcj gdbm gif gimpprint gphoto2 gpm gtk gtk2 imlib ipv6 jpeg kadu-modules kadu-voice kde libg++ libwww lirc mad md5sum midi mikmod mjpeg mmx motif mozilla mp3 mpeg ncurses nls nvidia objc oggvorbis opengl oss pam pda pdflib perl png pnp ppds python qt quicktime readline real ruby samba scanner sdl slang spell sse sse2 ssl svga tcltk tcpd tiff timidity truetype truetype-fonts type1 type1-fonts usb videos vim-with-x win32codecs wxwindows xine xml xml2 xmms xv xvid zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CBUILD, CTARGET, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS, PORTDIR_OVERLAY
