What's that supposed to mean? You are using autoconf 2.60, version 2.53 or newer is required?!!?

The same thing happened to me this weekend. I went to /opt/local/var/db/dports/sources/ rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports/kde/kdelibs3 and edited the Portfile by replacing the lines depends_build port:autoconf \ port:automake with depends_build port:automake and it worked! I know that I probably shouldn't, and that the maintainer needs to know so that it can be fixed, but in the meantime it worked. Fingers continually crossed. Ed Thome
