Thanks for the report, but I'm not sure what to do with it. What particular lines in that output file do you think point out a bug in autoconf? Nothing in that file jumped out at me as being indicative of a bug; the tail of the file shows that your command completed without any error messages at the end. A good bug report says not only what happened, but what you expected to happen and how the two are different. Furthermore, the example started out with:


localhost:~ purrcy$ sudo port -vds install gnuchess
Password:

which doesn't mention autoconf anywhere, but rather port. Are you sure you are directing your complaint to the right mailing list?
