I guess I'd have to do that port myself, and submit if it seems to work. I checked /usr/local/share/aclocal, found a lot of files with .m4 extension, to the left of .m4 was in most cases a package name. But there was no m4 subdirectory. I got the warning message aclocal-1.14: warning: couldn't open directory 'm4': No such file or directory wonder what that means. Tom
