I found a post suggesting it was an environment issue in a similar vein to Emanuel's link and found the workaround. It does appear that you need to either start you root xterm/aterm with "-ls"... or you need to "su -" instead of just "su" to be able to "make" properly. Eterm works because it starts as a login shell by default. xterm & aterm do not. This bug also affected my ability to do a make installkernel. I'm not a coder so I have no idea what in the environment causes a login shell to work & a non-login shell not work.

Exactly what I found, too. Any compiles I do need to be done in an Eterm or directly on the console. For the time being you should use Eterm. I will upgrade to BETA5 and see if it still exists there. If it does, it would seem that a bug report needs to be filed. What I don't understand is why Xterm specific unless it's something to do with the environment variables themselves, but I've checked the variables between Xterm and Eterm, and they're identical!

Didn't use Konsole but I am using KDE. It appears to be a problem in aterm & xterm, but strangely not Eterm. I do use "su" rather than "su -" I'm really just a networky person rather than unix sysadmin so its way over my head as to what the problem is. I'm just happy there's a workaround rather than having a system I can't update. I'm happy to assist where possible in identifying what the issue is but wouldn't have the skill to do it myself.

It's not specific to you, let me guess, you're using konsole from KDE? And you do a 'su'? Try to 'su -' and everything is fine again. Haven't had the time yet to figure out if it's a KDE problem or anything else but I reported this one too and got no answer.

RE: Portinstall problem (config.guess not found) ANSWER (sort of)
Hi, Had another search of the archives and found someone having a similar problem making gtk12. http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/htdig/freebsd-questions/2004-September/0581 90.html Saw an answer that the issue was running the make in X. So, I switched to a console and tried to install the port... bingo... no problem. Switch back to X and try in aterm or xterm, still same "config.guess not found" error. Bizarre bug.. but at least there's a workaround for now. Don't do any "make" functions in X. Phil.

I just rebuilt the machine as the problem was doing my head-in. Freebsd 5.3-beta5. Basically, X-Developer distro with KDE installed as desktop. The first port I try to to install is generally CVSUP. I get the "config.guess not found" error straight away... as below. I am not sure how to proceed. I'm tempted to fall back to 4-Stable which was working fine. Switching to FreeBSD-5 has been a nightmare. I just wanted to try PF & Fwbuilder2 as a firewall. There doesn't seem to be a lot of posts on the list with this problem so I'm assuming its a problem specific to me... but weird. Any help much appreciated.

Yup... no autoconf, automake or libtool present. Problem still persits. Doesn't matter which port I try I get the same error. e.g. fwbuilder, gimp, gmake, portupgrade. Any help much appreciated.
