Ok Thanks. I will have a look at this. For Symlinks: i use cp -p instead of ln -s. can this cause the misbehaviour? For Automake: i have gentoo/alt-prefix portage installed as system, so i'm using whatever a corresponding linux for example would use. I now double checked, but it seems i have only one automake installed: These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done! [ebuild R ] sys-devel/automake-1.10 0 kB Total: 1 package (1 reinstall), Size of downloads: 0 kB mduft build.libtool $ type automake automake is /opt/gentoo/usr/bin/automake mduft build.libtool $ As for the patch for 1.9.6: i cannot find a 1.9.6 installation here. I will try and rebootstrap everything, but i have done this before running the testsuite as far as i remember....
