 |
|
I just tried to emerge ntp and when the "make" failed twice, I went back to the earlier version. Same error
Is this a known problem? I can't find anything here in the forums
Happy New Year all

Checked out the bug report, but I don't think it helps. This is my error message

Are you running recent versions of automake etc? I read something that outdated versions of automake cause some packages to fail.
| Code: |
emerge autoconf automake m4 ntp

| Can you report this as a bug in bugzilla? The ebuild should be updated to require recent versions. |
