Description Ed Catmur 2007-11-12 00:42:38 UTC 
After modifying configure.ac and autoconf:

configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating pygobject-2.0.pc
config.status: creating pygobject-2.0-uninstalled.pc
config.status: creating docs/Makefile
config.status: creating docs/reference/entities.docbook
config.status: creating docs/xsl/fixxref.py
config.status: creating gobject/Makefile
config.status: creating examples/Makefile
config.status: creating tests/Makefile
config.status: creating PKG-INFO
config.status: creating config.h
config.status: executing depfiles commands

libffi support: yes

cd . && /bin/sh /var/tmp/portage/dev-python/pygobject-2.14.0/work/pygobject-2.14.0/missing --run aclocal-1.8  -I m4 -I .
aclocal: couldn't open directory `m4': No such file or directory
make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 1

I think pygtk has the same issue.
