Oh, really?! devel/autoconf is: PORTNAME= autoconf PORTVERSION= 2.13.000227 devel/autoconf213 is: PORTNAME= autoconf213 PORTVERSION= 2.13.000227 They installs SAME files under DIFFERENT names. Now we have cool way to use differnet versions of autoconf & automake: USE_AUTOCONF_VER=XXX, USE_AUTOMAKE_VER=XXX So, we COULD have new autoconf in simple port (without version after name: devel/autoconf) and use DIFFERNT versions for DIFFERENT ports. Of course, we should use autoconf213 by default (if here is USE_AUTOCONF=yes and NO USE_AUTOCONF_VER=XXX) and same for automake14/automake. It WORK for automake now! We HAVE new automake in devel/automake port and appropriate code in Mk/bsd.port.mk (it understand versions 14 and 15)! And we have only a HALF of code for autoconf in Mk/bsd.port.mk (it understands only version 213), and we DON'T HAVE autoconf 2.50 in devel/autoconf. WHY? AE> Make ports will not build using the newer versions. And don't say they I know it.
