You need automake installed but you don't want USE_AUTOMAKE to run it for you..... Since no ports use the new variables yet. WE can discuss a change in the behavior. Although, I am not sure whether it is a good idea. What do people think? Should USE_AUTOMAKE_VER select and install the correct dependency as well as set the appropriate ACLOCAL/AUTOMAKE variables but run automake unless USE_AUTOMAKE is set? Of course, we would do the equivalent move in USE_AUTOCONF_VER... :) Don't know, I'm not sure I want this since it will make these incompatible with POLA but this should be be brought since it does give interesting possibilities. POLA is for our benefit not meant as a straight jacket. Regards, -- Mario S F Ferreira - DF - Brazil - "I guess this is a signature."
