Hi list,

(Hope this is the right ML Considering it's port-related, I reckoned
ports@ was the one.)

I'm trying to build a port (jabberd14-1.6.0b8 from [0], to be precise)
on a system on which libtool has already been installed as a binary
package:

$ pkg_info | grep libtool
libltdl-1.5.22p3    GNU libtool system independent dlopen wrapper
libtool-1.5.22p14   generic shared library support script

When making the port, though, the system tries to install an older
version:

$ make
===>  jabberd14-1.6.0-mysql depends on: libtool-1.5.8 - not found
===>  Verifying install for libtool-1.5.8 in devel/libtool
===>  Checking files for libtool-1.5.8
`/usr/ports/distfiles/libtool-1.5.8.tar.gz' is up to date.
>> Checksum OK for libtool-1.5.8.tar.gz. (sha1)
...

I have checked in the port files, and apart from a (rather expected)
mention of the need for libtool (USE_LIBTOOL=Yes) in the main Makefile,
nothing is found. Specifically no mention is made about the libtool
version to be used.

I do not understand where the port system decides it needs the older
version of libtool, nor why it cannot use the more recent already
installed.

Do anyone of you have an idea/explanation or advice about this problem
and how to solve it?

Thanks (:
