It builds fine. | | Next, let's take gtkhtml: | | $ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local/dev | | ... | | Checking for required M4 macros... | libtool.m4 not found | glib-gettext.m4 not found | intltool.m4 not found | pkg.m4 not found | Checking for forbidden M4 macros... | ***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build gtkhtml | were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden | macros were found.

I can just comment the line, and configure passes, but | make will eventually die this way. (make: don't know how to make | GNOME_GtkHTML_Editor-3.6.server. Stop) | | I don't understand how all those gnu development tools work, so maybe | I'm just doing something really stupid here. In any case, could someone | please help me with these? Short answer is you need to install the devel/gnu-* ports (i.e. gnu-autoconf, gnu-automake, and gnu-libtool). The long answer is you need those ports, and some additional environment variables. Michael Johnson might be able to help you more quickly as he has been doing work on this recently. I won't be able to provide a longer answer at the moment.
