[gentoo-user] libsxlt and aclocal/autoconf failing during emerge

[Harry Putnam]

Can anyone tell from the tail of emerge -vuD system
what the trouble is with aclocal/autoconf and libxslt.

First it failed on aclocal... I re-emerged 
  emerge -v sys-devel/aclocal-wrapper

Tried again and it failed on autoconf
  emerge -v sys-devel/autoconf-wrapper

But that didn't help it ... still fails at autoconf.

Chances are that the file cited above will give a hint.
Does that file contain any error messages?

Sorry, I hoped someone would have had the same problem and just
recognize the tail messages.

If I'm interpreting things correctly (unlikely) those two macros are defined
in /usr/share/libtool/libtld/aclocal.m4, which belongs to the libtool package.
(On my machine, sys-devel/libtool-2.2.6a).

Do you have such a file/package on your machine?

I was reluctant to post but I did a google search and although it
appeared they were talking about Macs and such, they were talking about
libtool and (e)make's friends.  Could it be that there is a version
mismatch between those three?  Maybe one or two are newer than the others?

I also noticed there were a couple other packages affected, which lead
me to narrow my search a little more.  Seems to be the same thoughts all
the way around tho.

I have libtool installed but not that new of version.  In fact portage
doesn't show that new a version being available for ~x86, as of this
mornings sync.. (Its masked here)

Hm, yes, that's odd.

Well, when in doubt, blame libtool anyway.  It's a bet you'll win most of
the time.  Get out the shotgun and run lafilefixer --justfixit  (install
lafilefixer if you don't already have it).

You might want to run fix_libtool_files also if you've upgraded gcc lately.

If that doesn't work, reinstall libtool.

If that doesn't work, emerge -C libtool ;o)

Wait, but those are small 'm's. That means they must have been masked
manually. As Alan McKinnon mentioned in your other thread ("When masked pkg not
in [...]profiles/package.mask, where is it"), you might have an entry
in /etc/portage/package.mask.

My god... I'm really losing it.  I masked it apparently but don't
remember it.
