I tried multimedia/libvdpau since it was on the list of ports to be built or updated in connection with png. It quickly failed on automake. So I guess automake is not working. I checked pkg info -r automake and got nothing, likewise nothing for autoconf. So I wonder why/how it was installed. I might have done it because it was listed as a requirement for cross-compiling Haiku. I also wonder how I got so far with the ports prior to this ill sequel to upgrading png. I see automake is at v1.14.1 upstream, since December 2013. I'm very surprised how few FreeBSD ports use automake and autoconf, maybe autoconf and automake are used more in Linux? I have an old 10.0-STABLE installation with no ports/packages built yet, maybe I could try something on that regarding automake and autoconf? Tom
