Masked 1.13 and portage installs 2.69 ... still have the same error.
This is what I've got:

 # equery list '*' | grep -iE "(automake|autoconf)"
sys-devel/autoconf-2.69
sys-devel/autoconf-wrapper-13
sys-devel/automake-1.13.1
sys-devel/automake-wrapper-8


This is ONE of the package I'm trying to install (with the included
error), there are another 75:
# emerge  app-text/libpaper

More info, I have just installed this system with the base Gentoo
system installed. I'm trying to get all the rest (X, KDE, ...)
installed.
