so I'm trying to emerge kde on my ultra sparc1, and it bombs out with:
Code:
make[1]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdebase-3.2.2/work/kdebase-3.2.2'
String found where operator expected at /usr/bin/autom4te-2.57 line 280, near "error "need GNU m4 1.4 or later: $m4""
        (Do you need to predeclare error?)
syntax error at /usr/bin/autom4te-2.57 line 280, near "error "need GNU m4 1.4 or later: $m4""
BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/autom4te-2.57 line 453.
make[1]: *** [configure] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/kdebase-3.2.2/work/kdebase-3.2.2'
make: *** [configure] Error 2
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
 cd . && perl admin/am_edit
cd . && perl admin/am_edit Makefile.in
make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
 
!!! ERROR: kde-base/kdebase-3.2.2 failed.
!!! Function kde_src_compile, Line 129, Exitcode 2
!!! died running emake, kde_src_compile:make


Anybody have any ideas? I thought I was running out of space on my partition (which I was) but I moved /usr/portage to another drive.

Well, if you look closer to the message it complains about no m4 is found, try emerge m4.

Code:
emerge m4
and see if it works.

m4 was already merged. I just did an emerge sync to grab the new packages and it seemed to be compiling when I left this morning. I'll see how it goes this afternoon.
