Libtool.m4 and ltmain.sh Problems

Guys when I try to compile a simple C program in kdevelop it
reports "Gentoo sanity check failed!" libtool.m4 and
ltmain.sh have a version mismatch! (libtool.m4 = 1.5.10,
ltmain.sh = 1.5a) please run libtoolize --copy --force
so I run it
and it reports libtoolize: 'configure.ac' does not exist, any
idea?

To run the command shown you have to be in the project directory, using a shell. The project directory is the directory that has the <your_project>.kdevelop file.

I got the old "gentoo sanity check failed" as well with som mismatch between ***libtool.m4 = 1.5.10, ltmain.sh = 1.5a***
I googled it and found something that worked for me. You might try it.

Run:

I've got the exact same problem here as well. I was trying to compile a C program in Kdevelop and it just wouldn't go. Later I tried emerging a package and encountered the same error. So far I have tried:

libtoolize --copy --force
emerge sync

Neither one helped my cause so far. Anyone know how to fix this yet? I've seen multiple mentions of this on the web and it appears to be a bug.

This problem has been reported in the KDE bug tracking system, where it has been marked as an invalid bug, though it is also mentioned in the kdevelop FAQ.
