Lots of people are running into this. Looks like this is a common stumbling block.This is odd because "path" is right there in Autom4te/Request.pm, at least in my copy of autoconf-2.59.The above error message indicates Perl is looking for Request::path, not for Autom4te::Request::path. Why, I have no idea.That can happen if you have a stale cache (ie. generated by an older version).
So Kevin should try changing the line rm -f configure config.h.in in his ebuild script to read rm -rf configure config.h.in config.cache and perhaps future versions of autoconf should have a version stamp in the cache, to avoid this kind of problem? - Dan -- My technical stuff: http://kegel.com My politics: see http://www.misleader.org for examples of why I'm for regime change
