I've run into something here on an OS that was installed from scratch
only a week or so ago.
emerge -vuDNp world shows only 8 pkgs (on a todays sync).
But none of them will install even with --skipfirst and --keep-going
All fail when aclocal is trotted out. I don't see recent threads here
about it... googling turns up a herd of bugs involving aclocal but
then newest is 2008.
The newest threads here that even mention aclocal date around Jan 20.
I didn't change the compiler (gcc-4.3.4) since the first sync and
update world.
gcc-4.4.3 is also installed but I'm using 4.3.4
Today I ran:
emerge -v sys-devel/automake-wrapper (the package that has aclocal in
it)
Ran:
lafilefixer --justfixit
Reinstalled libtool
But still everything fails when aclocal gets called.
I tried switching to the newer compiler gcc-4.3.4... then tried to
repeat the steps above... but can't seem to get past aclocal.
I tried backup up to the next lower available version of
automake-wrapper:
automake-wrapper-3-r1
But of course aclocal fails.
