You're welcome. Instead of re-installing packages blind, here's an idea to point you to the package that the offending file belongs to and start from re- installing that. You can use equery or qfile to guide you: $ which aclocal /usr/bin/aclocal $ qfile belongs /usr/bin/aclocal sys-devel/automake-wrapper (/usr/bin/aclocal) which points at sys-devel/automake-wrapper -- Regards, Mick
