Hi! iMac G5 1.8 Panther 10.3.9
---- I've just installef MacPorts via .dmg I want to install ruby and rubygems. the ruby installation failed. They said I needed autoconf, so I cleaned ruby, uninstalled all the ports so that 'port installed' said that no port was installed, and start an autoconf installation, but had errors: Computer-di-luca:~ luca$ sudo port install autoconf ---> Fetching expat ---> Verifying checksum(s) for expat ---> Extracting expat ---> Configuring expat ---> Building expat with target all ---> Staging expat into destroot ---> Installing expat 2.0.1_0 ---> Activating expat 2.0.1_0 ---> Cleaning expat ---> Fetching gperf ---> Verifying checksum(s) for gperf ---> Extracting gperf ---> Configuring gperf ---> Building gperf with target all ---> Staging gperf into destroot ---> Installing gperf 3.0.3_0 ---> Activating gperf 3.0.3_0 ---> Cleaning gperf ---> Fetching libiconv ---> Verifying checksum(s) for libiconv ---> Extracting libiconv ---> Applying patches to libiconv ---> Configuring libiconv ---> Building libiconv with target all ---> Staging libiconv into destroot ---> Installing libiconv 1.12_0+darwin_7 ---> Activating libiconv 1.12_0+darwin_7 ---> Cleaning libiconv ---> Fetching ncursesw ---> Verifying checksum(s) for ncursesw ---> Extracting ncursesw ---> Applying patches to ncursesw ---> Configuring ncursesw ---> Building ncursesw with target all ---> Staging ncursesw into destroot ---> Installing ncursesw 5.6_1 ---> Activating ncursesw 5.6_1 ---> Cleaning ncursesw ---> Fetching ncurses ---> Verifying checksum(s) for ncurses ---> Extracting ncurses ---> Applying patches to ncurses ---> Configuring ncurses ---> Building ncurses with target all ---> Staging ncurses into destroot ---> Installing ncurses 5.6_0 ---> Activating ncurses 5.6_0 ---> Cleaning ncurses ---> Fetching gettext ---> Verifying checksum(s) for gettext ---> Extracting gettext ---> Applying patches to gettext ---> Configuring gettext ---> Building gettext with target all ---> Staging gettext into destroot ---> Installing gettext 0.17_3 ---> Activating gettext 0.17_3 ---> Cleaning gettext ---> Fetching perl5.8 ---> Verifying checksum(s) for perl5.8 ---> Extracting perl5.8 ---> Applying patches to perl5.8 ---> Configuring perl5.8 ---> Building perl5.8 with target all ---> Staging perl5.8 into destroot ---> Installing perl5.8 5.8.8_2 ---> Activating perl5.8 5.8.8_2 ---> Cleaning perl5.8 ---> Fetching p5-locale-gettext ---> Verifying checksum(s) for p5-locale-gettext ---> Extracting p5-locale-gettext ---> Configuring p5-locale-gettext ---> Building p5-locale-gettext with target all ---> Staging p5-locale-gettext into destroot ---> Installing p5-locale-gettext 1.05_0 ---> Activating p5-locale-gettext 1.05_0 ---> Cleaning p5-locale-gettext ---> Fetching help2man ---> Verifying checksum(s) for help2man ---> Extracting help2man ---> Applying patches to help2man ---> Configuring help2man ---> Building help2man with target all ---> Staging help2man into destroot ---> Installing help2man 1.36.4_1 ---> Activating help2man 1.36.4_1 ---> Cleaning help2man ---> Building libtool with target all Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_libtool/work/libtool-1.5.26" && make all " returned error 2 Command output: cd . && /bin/sh /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_devel_libtool/work/libtool-1.5.26/missing --run autoconf aclocal.m4:20: warning: this file was generated for autoconf 2.61. You have another version of autoconf. It may work, but is not guaranteed to. If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system entirely. To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically `autoreconf'. configure.ac:55: error: Autoconf version 2.60 or higher is required aclocal.m4:475: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE is expanded from... configure.ac:55: the top level autom4te: /usr/bin/gm4 failed with exit status: 1 make: *** [configure] Error 1 Error: The following dependencies failed to build: libtool m4 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing. ---------------- So, what's the matter? Can you help me please?
