Hi Thomas,

yes, autoconf-2.59_2 is currently installed.

" A pkg-plist file. This is a list of all the files that will be installed by the port. It also tells the ports system what files to remove upon deinstallation."
Well, I was looking for 'autoconf' in these files but didn't find it. And indeed, even though I have 'autoconf-2.59_2' installed, all I have is 'autoconf259', but not 'autoconf'.
> What are you attempting to install that requires autoconf?
I'm trying to compile my own code, and my build system has a toplevel 'autogen.sh' file that runs 'autoconf' in a number of places.
Regards, Stefan
