Or is this the ports tree as supplied on the 4.10-RELEASE installation media? I guess the former, because the latter should at least be self consistent. You need to either build or download a recent /usr/ports/INDEX to go with that -- the INDEX file committed to the ports tree is not updated very often nowadays. To build an index: # cd /usr/ports # make index and then wait for 15-20 minutes. Otherwise you can download a recently built index file by: # make fetchindex Then rerun pkgdb(1) --- tell it not to deinstall autoconf this time round. Then do portupgrade as usual. Once you've updated your system all of the pkgs that now depend on it should have been replaced by updated versions depending on a different version of autoconf. Although updating that kde package will take quite a bit of compiling. You can then deinstall autoconf-2.57_1 safely.
