Hello FUJIMOTO-san,

the current port of automake has one small problem, confirmed by the
automake maintainers.

If one uses automake --add-missing --copy --gnu one gets errors copying.

This is not the desired behaviour since it does indeed copy the files.

The supported fix is to delete the ! leading the system (`cp part on
line 6910 so that it reads:

elsif (system ('cp', $am_dir . '/' . $file, $errfile))

instead of

elsif (! system ('cp', $am_dir . '/' . $file, $errfile))

If you, or someone of the ports team wants to pick this up and put a
patch for this in the patches directory I would be happy.

Find the patch attached.

Kind regards,
