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.
