I tried to install gnuitar, using ebuild from http://www.gnuitar.com/downloads.php
but I got this error:

I have not touched a Gentoo box in a long time, so be cautioned.
Could you post the output of "echo $ACLOCAL_FLAGS"? |

Hmm... I think someone else can help you better.
Are you able to emerge anything? To me it looked like a problem with autoconf. So I would say, re-emerge libtool and autoconf. But that's all I can tell  |

but thanks for your help 
maybe someone has any other idea? |

This error occurs when your autotools cannot find the required macros. I see that you are pulling the sources from cvs, then it must mean it is running ./autogen.sh (which is generally there to create a configure script). autogen.sh runs autotools and libtool, and so the problem is just there...
I have just checked-in the cvs for gnuitar myself and it breaks on my machine also, while the source tar-ball of v0.3.2 version works fine. So I think it is a problem with the current cvs repository and not a problem of Gentoo; and you might want to ask the developer of gnuitar.
Hope I was of any help. |

indeed, the source tarball downloaded form gnuitar.com compiles successfully..
so maybe I'll try to contact gnuitar devs..
once again thank you for help..
but I'll wait with adding 'solved' to the topic, until I figure out what the problem with autoconf really is caused of.. |

finally solved:
I emerged =dev-libs/glib-1.2* and =x11-libs/gtk+-1.2* and now gnuitar compiles successfully.. |

Ah! Nice to know that you were able to solve it. Congratulations!
As I told you, I am working on a opensuse 10.3 machine without admin priviledges, and so I generally install everything to my $HOME. I didn't anticipate that the problem will have this solution!
Oh, I miss gentoo |

some ./configure errors where helpful 
without admin privileges?
so why wouldn't you install gentoo somewhere? |

I actually have Gentoo installed on one of the partitions of my USB hard disk. I use it on a computer which has no internet connection. It is a long story
I have a minimal installation of grml ( http://www.grml.org ) on it, from where I chroot to my Gentoo installation and do cool stuff.
It is like playing BioShock with linux |
