Install the automake19 port and start running "automake19" instead of "automake14". Both ports will live happily side by side. If you are talking about updating a port to use a different version of automake, just edit the WANT_AUTOMAKE_VER line in the Makefile. -- Dan Nelson dnelson@allantgroup.com
