Hi! > Hate to return so soon, but what is required in Makefile to get > autoconf to do its thing? Look at /usr/ports/Mk/Uses/autoreconf.mk, and read through the comment block at the beginning. It explains the general idea. USES= autoreconf or, maybe: USES= autoreconf:autoconf should do the right thing. -- pi at opsec.eu +49 171 3101372 2 years to go !
