You can either patch in configure or configure.in with USE_AUTOTOOLS. If
you want to keep patch in configure.in. I would do like this:
--------------------------------------------------
USE_AUTOTOOLS= autoconf:262:env
GNU_CONFIGURE= yes
[...]
pre-configure:
@(cd ${WRKSRC} && ${SETENV} ${AUTOTOOLS_ENV} ${AUTORECONF} -W none)
--------------------------------------------------
The autoreconf will rebuild configure file. If you still need to patch in
configure after rebuild, then add REINPLACE_CMD under it. You can read
book here:
http://sourceware.org/autobook/autobook/autobook_43.html
--------------------------------------------------
For instance, whenever you edit `configure.in', you must remember to
re-run aclocal in case you added a reference to a new macro. You must also
rebuild `configure' by running autoconf; `config.h' by running autoheader,
in case you added a new AC_DEFINE; and automake to propagate any new
AC_SUBSTs to the various `Makefile.in's. If you edit a `Makefile.am', you
must re-run automake. In both these cases, you must then remember to
re-run config.status --recheck if `configure' changed, followed by
config.status to rebuild the `Makefile's.
--------------------------------------------------
In your case, I think run autoreconf is good enough. But you can use
'USE_AUTOTOOLS=autoconf:262' without add pre-configure/GNU_CONFIGURE if
you prefer. Read in Mk/bsd.autotools.mk for more info too.
