Hello,

Has anyone else run into this:

emerge virtual/emacs

[snip]

>>> Unpacking m4-1.4.11.tar.lzma to /var/tmp/portage/m4-1.4.11/work
unpack m4-1.4.11.tar.lzma: file format not recognized. Ignoring.
>>> Source unpacked.
>>> Compiling source in /var/tmp/portage/m4-1.4.11 ...

!!! ERROR: sys-devel/m4-1.4.11 failed.
Call stack:
ebuild.sh, line 1546:  Called dyn_compile
ebuild.sh, line 937:  Called src_compile
m4-1.4.11.ebuild, line 23:  Called econf '--enable-nls'
'--enable-changeword'
ebuild.sh, line 543:  Called die

!!! no configure script found
!!! If you need support, post the topmost build error, and the call
!!! stack if relevant.

I looked on bugzilla, where it was suggested to run:

emerge -1 app-arch/lzma-utils

I did that but the error on m4 persists.

If anyone has a workaround, please pass it on.

Thanks,
Roger
