Hi,

i am trying to build webapp to be able to connect Tomcat to Apache.. the problem is that to build webapp i need autoconf 2.51 or higher.. and it seems that i do..
Code:

*  sys-devel/autoconf
     Latest version available: 2.54
      Latest version installed: 2.54
      Homepage: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/autoconf.html
      Description: Used to create autoconfiguration files


however, when i do autoconf --version i get this:
Code:

[08:11:11:root@/home/saint/jakarta-tomcat-connectors-4.0.6-src/webapp]autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13


so, what is going on ? how can it have two versions at the same time?
can someone suggest a solution to this?

thanks

nevermind. turns out all i needed to do was
Code:

export WANT_AUTOCONF_2_5=1


and then
Code:
 emerge autoconf
to get the right version.. back to building webapp..

thanks to the good people in the #gentoo channel.
