Hi all
I've strange problem with autoconf 261 ports.
He install autoconf under
/usr/local/bin/autoconf261
instead
/usr/local/bin/autoconf-261
It's ports bug ? or it's me do something wrong ?

Hi Albert,
I've just had a very weird afternoon investigating autoconf and
automake. They seem pretty cool but I must digest some more manuals and
tutorials before I understand them well enough to write my own
configure.ac and Makefile.am files.
With the help of a tutorial I wrote a brilliant configure.ac/Makefile.am
combination and managed to get from "helloworld.cc" to
"/usr/local/bin/hello" in a few easy steps. :D It'll be harder for my
larger projects though...
I had some trouble actually locating the files automake19, aclocal19 and
autoconf259. I thought they would be called automake, aclocal and
autoconf. Guess I was wrong. Apparently it's FreeBSD's way of keeping
several versions of these programs concurrently. It would be handy if
the ports installed symlinks to the most recent versions, instead of me
having to add some aliases to /etc/csh.cshrc.
Oh, don't know if this will be a problem for you, but unless my ports
tree is out of date, the latest automake relies on autoconf v2.59 rather
than the latest autoconf, v2.61.
